عدسة Leica 12.5cm f2.5 Hektor

The scratches are mentioned in the listing, and honestly they add a bit of character—the bokeh on this old Hektor is still gorgeous, with that classic swirly look. Focus ring is silky smooth for a lens this age, and it mounts solidly on my screw-mount body.

I was worried about the scratch description, but once mounted, the focus throw is so smooth and precise it’s easy to overlook the glass issues for that classic vintage look.

The scratches on the glass had me nervous, but mounted on my screw-mount body, the focus ring turns with that old-school, silky dampness you just don't get anymore. Sure, the coating's a bit hazy, but wide open at f/2.5 the rendering is exactly the soft, dreamy look I was hoping for.
