looking to complement my set of four with a 50mm mk2 or mk1. Hoping to find a EU seller.

pm

Currently looking for a Aaton Minima. One that needs servicing is fine. Focus is on one in EU and preferably with a tap. I'm looking to use it for bringing it with me in the mountains while hiking and camping. Hope to bring a small grey cat instead of it's bigger (and much heavier) black brother...

also following, thanks for the input all!

sold yet? Same Q for your minima?

Thanks. I'll keep my eyes peeled.

thanks. looking to match with anamorphic. hence the question. Will get back to you.
Diameter of the glass part is probably around 40mm? (thats what i need to know for my anamorphic)

do you need to spool film on special reels for this camera, since they no longer make them?

what is that process like?

here in europe (NL/BE) you can ask your lab to do it.

check etkon.com and cameramarket.eu! they'll have 8-64's I believe.

I think some of them are defeinitely pretty good wide open! The 8mm was pretty soft wode open though so probably will do T2 maximum. Blue shift might be from the eyepiece being open and flaring the shot ?

 

My friend and I paid $5000 for the full set, we're also probably going to end up paying just over $1000 to service them so somewhere arpund $6k total for a fully serviced set ?

6k for a full set incl service sounds really great, also the fact that you have a set of 5... I'm eying a set of 4 (superspeedsmk2's) for 7500 euro. but then a set of 4. Do you happen to know whether the s16mm mk2 line also has a 32mm or 50mm that i should be able to find?

Price reduced - 1100 Euro for each lens

Hi Jan, thanks for the listing. Where are you based? Poland i presume?
Could you give the me diameter of the 16mm front element? (just the glass)

Bought a set of Optar Illuminas! Love them, just sent them out to get serviced since the mechanism on all of them needs to be greased. Seems like they just sat in a case for a decade or so and all the lubricant has dried up. Otherwise they look great, here's a little test I shot with my buddy: (Note: the vignetting you see on some shots is from the screw-on ND's we were stacking in front of the lens)

 

I love it! and also, that sky... Amazing. Super nice that you tested both wide open and 2.8. Wide open still looks pretty good, have to say. How did you like it? Would you use it wide open at all?

Did a see a pretty heavy blue shift at the 50mm?
And may i ask what price range you ended up spending on?

just here to appreciate the conversation, learning alot. thanks.

curious whether you found anything yet and if so, whether you liked it ?

Also wondering whether these are still available.
