Selling a beautiful Buhl 200mm f/3.2 lens mounted on what has to be the sharpest and best designed lens board I've laid eyes on for a Speed Graphic. Brilliant design. Only selling because I have the Aero Ektar as well and have no use for this. Sample image is taken with this lens. Bokeh that is truly awesome and glass that's clear as can be. Great lens ready to go on your Speed Graphic or adapted to another camera if needed.
$165
Was this orginally a slide projector lens, or what?
Yes, the Buhl was. This one and one other one are more of the two most popular ones due to the fast aperture. This one gets pretty darn close to what my Aero Ektar gets, but as you may know, there's just something magical about the Aero. However, I dare say if I posted the sample image you see and told others it was made with the Aero Ektar, they would probably not question it.
Great lens...was going to keep but have made a lot of gear purchases lately including a Chamonix 45N-2, Rodenstock, and a Hasselblad 500 CM with Zeiss 80mm. Needless to say, time to start recovering some of the money for sure.
Thanks for inquiring!
Hey, just joined this forum. Do you still have the lens or is it sold?
