    Description

    Here's a Super Nice Calumet 210mm f/5.6 Calumet Caltar-S II Multi-Coated Lens--- for large format View Cameras.
    I think it's made by the same people that make the
    Schneider Symmar-S, made with the same formula for Calumet, sometime in
    the 1980's to early 1990s.   It's in beautiful, about 99% Mint Condition--- it's lightly used with a few microscopic dust specs inside and a hint of some blemishes... but they won't cause anything detrimental.
    The exterior finish is almost perfect---
    No dents, No dings, No significant scratches--- just a few light marks here and there, and a couple of teensy edge nicks.  Really nothing much to speak of.
    The glass is almost perfect too---- it has crisp coating reflections, No cleaning marks that I can see, No fungus, no haze, just a couple of specs inside and a couple of spots of very faint blemishes, and a couple of spots where the lens element edge paint has a few blemishes.  I don't think any of that will cause any noticeable detriment to photos though, but I want to be straight and say it's there.  Otherwise---- the aperture is working perfectly, with no oil on the blades and the shutter speeds all sound/look spt-on, up and down the scale.  They have not been "bench-tested" and I have not tested it with film, but they sound/look good with dry shooting testing.   It also includes/is mounted to a 5 1/4 X 5 1/4 lens Board, and it comes with a Domke soft/cloth Lens Wrap.
    Continental US Shipping will be .50.   It will be packed well and safe.  International Shipping via the ebay program.
    PLEASE READ THIS---
    By Buying this you also Agree with this:  Reality check.... I am not Amazon or a professional Camera Store seller--- just a camera collector/shooter selling a surplus of Used items.  I'm not here trying to rip anybody off or sneak one past you.   But that said... I'm not into having things go back and forth based on Opinion, or risk "part swapping" either.  So it's being sold As Is, No Warranty, No Buyer's Remorse, No Try-outs, No Returns... Sold As Is--- Used and perhaps Not 100% Perfect.    If you don't want to accept that policy--- move on, please don't buy it!   I try to be detailed and truthful but I can't describe every every millimeter of it, so there may be a nick or blemish or a couple specs of dust that I failed to mention... but they would hardly diminish it... unless you expect everything to be Perfect and Like New.
    It's Not Mint, so don't expect it to be, but it's pretty darn close and Nice for
    a Vintage, Used item that's about 35+ years-old.  What you see is what you'll get and I package my items well, so it arrives in the same condition as shown.
