Title: Re: Massive lens auction
Post by: bobfriedman on May 11, 2025, 14:30:32: unfortunately except for some nostalgic/collector reason.... these lenses, in a pragmatic sense, don't stand up to industrial machine vision lenses operationally.

as always his prices are not inexpensive.. and I didn't see it but I suspect there is bidder's premium (usually 25-30%).. I have owned many of these lenses and sold them all on eBay where they didn't command very high prices at all.
Title: Re: Massive lens auction
Post by: Dr Klaus Schmitt on May 11, 2025, 16:34:21: Indeed Bob, it is mainly for:
a) collectors as some are rather rare
b) highly specialized ones, namely for reflected UV

But Thanks for Birna having listed those here!

There will be a 2nd auction in autumn which more UV lenses ;)

Post by: Dr Klaus Schmitt on May 11, 2025, 16:36:02: Btw.this UV-lens here is very rare: https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/204944454_quartz-takumar-3585-mm-and-accessories-1963-onwards (https://www.liveauctioneers.com/item/204944454_quartz-takumar-3585-mm-and-accessories-1963-onwards)

Certainly Klaus, you have amassed quite a singular collection over the years. Best of luck on the auction!
Title: Re: Massive lens auction
Post by: Dr Klaus Schmitt on May 20, 2025, 10:47:24: Well, quite a bit were sold, except of them - and prices were lower than expected, but overall not too bad a result.

Post by: bobfriedman on August 26, 2025, 13:08:48: best of luck Klaus... I do like the s-planar set.. but I am not bidding.
Title: Re: Massive lens auction
Post by: Dr Klaus Schmitt on August 27, 2025, 07:58:17: Thanks! Yep, those PLANARs are special, one of them is rather unknown, the 120mm one is famous for its excellent rendering!
My (lens-) friend Marco Cavina wrote even about it...
