WTB: Apo Sironar S 180mm

Anything to sell (WTS) or looking for anything specific (WTB)? Anything advertised on this forum comes with the usual "buyer beware" advice; it is up to the purchaser to assure themselves of the integrity of the supplier and item being sold. It is also the responsibility of the seller to ensure that payment is forthcoming before parting with said item.

WTB: Apo Sironar S 180mm

The used 180mm Apo Sironar S on the Teamwork Digital website is a mirage, sadly, so I thought I'd check if anyone here had one in decent shape that they might consider parting with. Please drop me a line if you do.

Kind regards

David.

Ffordes have an Apo Sironar N ... which I realise is not precisely what you are looking for.
They also have an Apo Symmar ... which happens to be one I have listed with Ffordes.

Thanks David - I appreciate the heads up. I'm holding out for the S, though, as I want it for 5x7 and the coverage of the N and the Schneider lenses isn't quite what I'm looking for. Of course after a few months of not finding the S, I might well crack and get the N...

Cheers

David.

You might consider putting a Wanted ad on Robert White's Noticeboard as it is only a fiver. It says it will stay on for 30 days, but much of the stuff that's on it just now is way longer than that, and I know that quite a few LF users visit this site and might just have what you want.

David Evans very helpfully pointed me towards ASA foto, and Andrew Skilling there showed me an appealing price for exactly the lens I was looking for. Thanks to all for their help.

David.
