A very interesting early prototype of the M-mount Elmar 3.5/5cm. This unnumbered lens features an entirely different construction from the production version. The shape of the focusing mount is similar to that of the famous dual-lever Summicron 5cm prototypes, and the bayonet design also differs in many details from the later series version. The lens is in beautiful condition with good optics. It comes with expertise from Mr. Ottmar Michaely.
