Leica L-mount Interchangeable Lens 《Leitz Hektor 28mm F6.3 (Coated)》 【Overview】 The Hektor 28mm F6.3 is known as Leica's first wide-angle lens. This item is a very rare coated version. Out of a total production of 9,694 lenses, only about 700 are said to be coated, making it one of the rarest Leica lenses. Furthermore, this item comes with genuine brass chrome front and rear caps and is in excellent condition with almost no signs of use. This is a very rare opportunity. 【Condition of the Item】 Appearance: ・The plating is beautiful, with very few scratches or minor marks. ・The genuine front and rear caps are also in excellent condition with almost no scratches or marks. Optics: ・No mold, haze, scratches, or balsam separation. ・The interior has been thoroughly photographed in backlit conditions. Please check the high degree of transparency. ・The coating is also beautifully preserved. Operation: ・Both the focusing helicoid and aperture blades function well. 【Accessories】 ・Genuine front cap ・Genuine rear cap ・Genuine Bakelite case (the screw threads do not match, so the lid only rests on top) 【Comments】 The Hektor 28mm F6.3, despite its pre-war design, is a historical lens that served as Leica's first wide-angle lens. (At the time, 35mm was considered wide-angle, and 28mm was called "ultra-wide-angle.") Leitz at the time was not good at wide-angle or bright lenses, and later had Schneider make the Xenon 50mm F1.5 and the Super-Angulon 21mm, but this is a genuine Leitz lens designed by Berlek. The number "6.3" reflects the difficulties of the time. Both the design and brightness are far removed from modern sensibilities, making this a lens where you can truly feel its historical value. The coated version was limited to a part of the post-war period, and the aperture markings were changed from the continental style to the international style. The construction of the lens barrel was also improved, making this the final form of the Hektor 28mm, which had been in production since before the war. Only about 700 were produced. Even fewer than the approximately 3,000 nickel versions, making its rarity as a collector's item stand out. (From Asahi Sonorama's "How to Identify Leica Lenses" p.21) This particular item is excellent in both appearance and optics, and also comes with genuine caps and a genuine case. This is a masterpiece that combines beauty, rarity, and accessories, and is a unique opportunity to add to your collection. 〜 Leica Treasure Market 〜
