Hi, I am hopeful the group here can help me with what appears to be a pretty rare lens.
I believe that I have a Rodenstock APO-Sironar W 300mm F5.6 MC lens.
I went to the Rodenstock lens page at
http://www.prograf.ru/rodenstock/lar...en.html#table1 and the only APO-Sironar lens on the entire page that has a 127mm thread at 300mm F5.6 is the Rodenstock APO-Sironar W 300mm F5.6 MC lens.
I wanted to make sure I am not overlooking something and also confirm the identity of the lens based on the above criteria.
I retired recently and I am in the process of selling all the jewels that I have collected over the years. I want to make sure I have the right information on this lens before listing it for sale.
Unfortunately, there isn't a single listing on eBay, current or past sale, for the Rodenstock APO-Sironar W 300mm F5.6 MC lens making this one a little bit of a head scratcher.
I have the lens in front of me and here is the actual text on the front lens barrel "Rodenstock APO-Sironar 1:5,6 f=300mm MC". The serial number is: 10989611.
I have a clear filter on the front element so that is how I know the front filter thread is 127mm for sure. The lens is mounted on a Copal 3 shutter and it is in flawless mint condition.
I am interested in hearing your thoughts about confirming the model of the lens and also any idea of what the current market value may be.
Thanks in advance.
Tim
