This is a very rare Leitz Elmar 10.5cm 4.5 lens for medium format, in a working Kodak-branded Compur shutter. This is not the “Mountain Elmar” (that’s a 10.5cm f6.3) and it’s not a Leica thread mount lens, it’s a medium format lens originallymeant fortheKodak Vollenda camera in the 1930s. Little bit more exotic, but that’s kinda the point. Light front element marks, slight internal haze- nothing dramatic for the age, but not “mint”. Some cosmetic paint and finish wear. While it’s originally from a Vollenda, this lens was mounted on a 2×3 field camera, and the in-lens focusing system is fixed at infinity; of course, it can be focused through its complete range with a bellows. Covers 6×9 medium format.
