Leica Elmar 35mm F3.5 Old Lens L39 screw mount. Released in 1930. Leica's first wide-angle lens. It's the same size as the 50mm Elmar when collapsed, making it extremely small and thin. Despite its size, stopping down provides sufficient resolution for distant scenery, and it excels in street photography. However, being one of the earliest wide-angle lenses, it also has strong quirks. I've prepared some sample photos taken with this lens. This time, I took it out for snapshots in Tamagawa. While 35mm lenses often result in safe photos due to the small difference in angle of view compared to smartphones, this lens, despite its modest F3.5 aperture, naturally produces interesting and emotional images. It's the opposite of modern, flat depictions, with significant vignetting and a focus concentrated in the center, but it delivers the kind of rendering you'd expect from an old wide-angle lens. This lens is easy to handle and doesn't produce dramatic rainbow effects, but it can create beautiful light expressions with gentle flare around light sources. Condition: No noticeable mold or haze, some cleaning marks on the surface. The exterior shows some scratches from use, but no significant dents. Operation is smooth. I'd consider it a good condition item, perhaps even a beautiful item if the exterior were a bit cleaner. Comes with front and rear original caps. Condition: Good condition with successful test shots. Exterior: Scratches from use, no noticeable dents. Optics: No noticeable mold or haze, some cleaning marks. Operation: Operation confirmed on α7 and Leica Ⅲg. Accessories: Front and rear caps 2379 *Evaluations are subjective. Please understand that these are used items. *Returns are accepted, so please feel free to purchase with confidence!
