I have decided to part ways with my Leica Elmarit R 19 v1, I loved it very much but as I age I feel I want to travel lighter.

As you can see this lens is showing an excellent cosmetic status given its age. Please see the pics and you'll be the judge of that.

The lens is clean, with no haze, no fungus, smooth focus, and snappy aperture clicks. The lens is NOT de-clicked.

I am throwing in a 77mm step-down front ring, so you might be able to use your photo filters without struggling, as well as a slip-on focus cine gear.
Of course, both can be removed if you are a purist.

You'll get original Leica front and back caps with the lens.
The front cap has a small side crack, but I fixed it with industrial-quality US Epoxy glue, touted to be the world's strongest

You also get the original Leica lens hood, it actually helps to snap it on as the lens has such a wide field of view.

The lens has ALWAYS been kept in a dry cabinet like all my gear.

I am currently located in Thailand for work. I will ship express courier, with the likes of FedEx or DHL. It should take around 7 - 10 days from the time you purchase the item to get to you if you live in the US.
