40mm T2.1 Zeiss PL Lens - For Sale

This is a superb Zeiss lens. It is sharp, constrasty, and distortion free. It covers the "Silent" or Full Super-35 Aperture. The price new from Arriflex: $5,500 in 1999 dollars. It is not a focal length that is commonly available. The front and rear elements are clean and scratch free. Mechanically the focus and aperture rings are smooth and have no backlash. The housing does show some wear marks in the anodizing. This lens had a calibrated infrared witness mark placed on the lens barrel using a Zeiss MTF machine. You will see it in the photos as a piece of red tape placed next to the stock white visible light witness mark. It can be easily removed. Front and rear lens caps are included. I am the original owner. It is my personal lens and was never in rental house use. Maintained by the techs at Clairmont Camera, Studio City, California.
