Update

I apologize to everyone for being late with the work on updating the posts with the photos and descriptions of the rest of the collection of cameras, lenses and peripheral equipment. Nothing really has changed except I've had to focus on my health and fitness where I can work again in any normal way I have been working.

All I can say is the digestive issues have stablized where I know what's wrong and I know what I can eat and everything else is an occasional food experiment or just off-limits, which is most foods. The Siactic nerve has also stablized where the front of the lower right leg is still numb from above the knee to the ankle and the whole left leg is weaker than before the problems.

That said, I'm walking a lot, 5-6 miles 4-5 days a week which leaves me tired for much of the day. And with just 2+ days for real work, life seems to get in the way. Such is life anymore, but all of the stuff is still available and for sale.

In the meantime, I'll get back to the photos and descriptions of each piece in the Minolta manual focus system and the three large format lenses, and if you have an real interest, meaning wanting to buy, please let me know and we can make the arrangements.

LF Lenses

I'm still on my break for health reasons, and I'm still working on photos of the lenses, cameras and peripheal equipment with my Minolta manual focus system, but I've decided to sell three large format lenses, used with 4x5 and larger cameras.

These lenses are as follows:

Schneider Super Angulon 90mm f5.6
Schneider APO-Symmar 180mm f5.6
Schneider Symmar-S 300mm f5.6

I'll be posting photos and descriptions soon but the lenses are in like new condition. They haven't been used since I bought because the 4x5 camera I had planned to use them won't happen and they don't fit the 4x5 camera I have now.

I currently use a Horseman HD camera which is an excellent basic field camera but has limitations on the focal length and size of the lenses which fit it, namely 120mm to about 240mm and only Copal 0 and 1 shutters, not a 3 shutter.

All the lenses are in near-mint condition. As for the price, the 90mm lens is $800, the 180mm lens is $600, and the 300mm lens is $1,000. I can send photos if you are interested before I've posted descriptions of them here.

You can e-mail me if you have any questions or have interest to buy any of them. I'm open to fair offers.
