Mamiya Sekor 70mm f2.8 Leaf Shutter LS C Lens

Description

Up for auction with no reserve is a Mamiya-Sekor 70mm F2.8
LEAF SHUTTER
"C" lens for the 645-series of medium format cameras.
This lens was just professionally cleaned and checked and is in near mint condition!  The report from the professional servicer will be included and states:
"Removed all optical elements and cleaned all optical surfaces.  Removed a small amount of fungus from both front and rear optical blocks.  Confirmed proper shutter speeds on shutter tester.  Reassembled optics and confirmed optical infinity on collimator.  Cleaned lens exterior and confirmed proper shutter sequence operation on a Mamiya camera body.  All Clear."
Because of the lens's built-in leaf shutter higher flash sync speeds can be used up to 1/500 of a second. Also by using the leaf shutter instead of the camera's focal plane shutter there will be no focal plane shutter distortion of rapidly moving subjects.
Of course the camera's focal plane shutter can still be used with this lens in the usual way.
A 58mm UV filter and Mamiya front and rear lens caps are also included.
(Please note that the yellow and blue colors in the photos are reflections from my ring light.  Also, very tiny "dust specks" are not on the lens, but are artifacts from my iPhone camera/lens.)
Shipping will be via UPS Ground or UPS Worldwide Saver service.
Local pickup in NW Connecticut is offered at no cost.  Worldwide shipping via eBay's Global Shipping Program is also offered.  Please do not ask me to ship this internationally without using that program.
