Hi,

As an addition to my rather vague other WTB I'm looking for one of 2 very specific lenses.

I'm looking for a Fuji 125mm CM-W F5.6 lens.
Glass must be very good and shutter fully working.

Would also look at a schneider super symmar HM 120mm but price may rule that one out.

Thanks,

Marc

While I'm pretty sure you'll have worked out exactly what you want Marc, I can't help but notice that the Super Symmar has a coverage of 180mm, while the Super Angulon 120/121 has a coverage of 288mm?

Hi peter,
the super symmar 120 has 211 image circle, it's the apo symmar 120 that has the smaller 179mm image circle. The 211 circle is plenty for my needs, which are not pure architecture, and it's size, weight and brightness advantages over the f8 version are worth the lesser image circle for my needs. But agreed for architectural and interior use the larger I.c. Of the f8, or nikkor f8, would be necessary.

I've got a feeling it may take a while to find my preferred super symmar 120 so in the meantime if anyone has an older 120/6.8 angulon do let me know as that will keep me going in the meantime.
Thanks,
marc

Marc, there's no real detail in the listing, but Mr Cad seems to have the 120 Angulon. It's a bit cheap by their normal pricing, so possibly better not get too hopeful.

Phoned Mr cad..its very very old, no shutter, iffy glass, etc, etc...not surprising at that price.
I had one once in a good compur shutter, very clean, and paid I think about £200 so hopefully will find the same deal again!

I've now found a lovely multicoated fujinon 125mm.
Thank you jenny, looking forward to it.
