This specific unit is a rare \"Like New\" example, preserving the mirror-like finish and silky mechanical movement that defined the Wetzlar factory in the 1950s. The 16556 adapter included in this kit is a crucial accessory for Leica enthusiasts, bridging the gap between the lens head and specialized focusing systems. Because this lens was built during a time of uncompromising quality, it delivers a \"three-dimensional\" micro-contrast that modern, mass-produced lenses struggle to replicate. Whether you are shooting on a classic M3 or adapting it to a Sony or Fujifilm digital body, this 90mm provides an elite, timeless aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"5\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eCondition Report\u003c\/b\u003e Like New condition. The lens barrel and 16556 adapter are in museum-grade cosmetic condition with virtually no signs of handling. The glass elements are flawless—completely free from fungus, haze, dust, or scratches.

The chrome finish remains bright and free of oxidation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"6\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eSpecialist Note\u003c\/b\u003e \"The 90mm Elmar is a lens with a soul. What I love about this 'Like New' S\/N is the 15-blade diaphragm; it creates a bokeh that is incredibly smooth and painterly, something you just don't see in modern 6 or 8-blade lenses. The 16556 adapter makes this a very versatile kit for those into macro or specialized tele-work. It feels like a solid, precision-weighted instrument. For the photographer who wants that authentic, mid-century German 'look' with the convenience of a collapsible design, this is a top-tier investment.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"7\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"7\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"8\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,0,0\"\u003eLeitz Wetzlar 90mm f\/4 Elmar Prime Lens\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,1,0\"\u003eLeica 16556 (OUBIO) Adapter\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,2,0\"\u003eFront and Rear Lens Caps\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"8,3,0\"\u003e[Optional: Original Leather Pouch if available]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003e\u003cb data-path-to-node=\"9\" data-index-in-node=\"0\"\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-path-to-node=\"10\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,0,0\"\u003eCamera Type: Lenses\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,1,0\"\u003eLens Mount: Leica M-mount (via adapter) \/ M39 Screw Mount\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,2,0\"\u003eFocal Length: 90mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,3,0\"\u003eMaximum Aperture: f\/4\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"10,4,0\"\u003eCategory: 2.
