Rodenstock ALPA HR Alpagon 23mm 5.6 LB (Aperture Unit)

[Destin]

In pristine condition with minimal use, includes all original packaging and neoprene cover. The lighting does show up some external dust but rest assured there's not a mark or scratch. You'd be forgiven for thinking its brand new.

Asking $8,000 USD PayPal (Family/Friends) or USDC.

Out of my league, but wow!

First aperture mount I’ve noticed for sale used. And first mentioning crypto, unless that was a typo.

If I had a TC I’d put this on it and die happy.

Well, add $3k for a TC and back adapter and you're almost there

Btw for the OP: GLWS. Its a great lens.

Not a typo. I'm surprised it's not more widely used here. I'm also happy to accept BTC depending on what the market is doing at the time of the sale.

Happy to accept ETH nett of gas fees.

I know all that ETH would come in handy one day haha.

How hard or expensive would it be to convert this into a copal shutter? Or am I better off finding a version that is already like that?

cheers

I don't know the answer to that sorry. Perhaps someone else can chime in, but as far as I know you'd need to find a Copal Shutter to put in it first, and only then you can send it off to be done.

You could reach out to Alpa directly. Their contact info is on their website. They’re friendly, helpful, and responsive.

As op notes, the trick is you’ve gotta source a suitable copal 0 shutter first, since they’re discontinued, and idk if they’ll do the conversion with a customer-supplied shutter. Let us know what you find out if you do contact them!
