WTS Schneider Super-Symmar 110mm XL

[Baxter]

This lens is in fantastic condition and comes with a Linhof/Ebony board as well as caps and the box.

This became my favourite lens with my Ebony 45SU and rightly has established itself a huge fanbase on account of resultant picture quality and the massive image circle. Because I rate this lens so highly, I've held onto this lens for 2 years after selling my film gear, just in case I wanted to go back to the darkslide or go mad with further spending and get a Linhof Techno view camera. Neither of these seem likely to happen and so it's up for sale.

Looking for £800 ono - note this is a price reduction.Lens is now sold

Any questions, please ask

Price reduction from £900 to £800.

Come on- it's a wonderful lens!

I agree its an excellent lens, and the seller is highly regarded.

I forgot to add: I've used my 110XL rather more than I've used the PS945!

Baxter, I would really, really like this but both the lack of money and the thought I may not use it enough are the things stopping me.
Lovely lens though, a good price and a good seller!

Thanks Steve and Charlie, much appreciated. I'm not surprised that you use this most Steve, I did too. Then again switching to the Cooke opens up a whole host of creative possibilities.

It took me a while to move to a 110, 80, 58mm XL lens set up at wider end from my original 120, 90 and 75mm (latter was short-lived), but found the 110mm really suited the way I saw things. It doesn't exaggerate the foreground unduly, yet has a pleasing angle of view with an image circle that handles the most extreme movements you are likely to dream up. Unlike the wider two XL lenses above, it doesn't require a centre filter.

Hope to catch up with you at Sennen over the summer Charlie if you are around - I've got 3 weeks in total lined up.

Possibly the best focal length wide angle around - with it's large amount of movement you can get wide and loomy or very natural perspective. Good price too! (and it covers 8x10 - just)
