Canon 50mm f1.2 LTM lens - Mint Condition

Canon 50mm f1.2 LTM Lens - In Mint Condition
 
This is an extremely rare 50mm f1.2 LTM lens without any flaws. Nearly every one on the market has scratches or  some kind of lens flaw. This coupled with the rare and hard to find original lens cap,  lenshood, Canon Filter and Leather case make it an exceptionallly rare and desirable/collectible example.
 
This is one of Canon's legendary LTM lenses that enhanced the Camera makers early reputation. The fastest lens of its era by any maker, it caused a great stir at the time. It demonstrates characterful era defining softness wide open but has a really characterful bokeh that makes for wonderful images. Stopped down it is tack sharp. 
 
These lenses compare favourably with all Leica lenses of the period and are superior to their Nikkor counterparts. 
 
The glass is clean and clear without scratches, fungus or haze. It comes with top and bottom caps, original Canon Lenshood and an original Canon 55mm filter both in an original Canon Leather Case.
