This Leica Ernst Leitz Wetzlar Elmar 9cm (90mm) f/4 telephoto portrait lens is for use with Leica M39 LTM screw mount cameras and adapters. It is a classic Leica telephoto lens with smooth focusing and solid overall mechanical feel.
Condition is fair overall. The barrel shows noticeable scuffing, scratches, and areas of finish loss from age and use. The front element has cleaning marks, and there is haze present internally. The focus adjustment remains very smooth, however the aperture adjustment is frozen and does not move. The glass is free of fungus or separation, and there is no oil visible on the aperture blades. Please see photos for a closer look at the cosmetic and mechanical condition of the lens.
Honestly, this one's more of a user restoration piece, parts lens, or shelf queen for Leica collectors than a pristine shooter.
