※About rarity

Tele-Elmarit-M 90mm f2.8, second-generation compact medium-telephoto lens. Known for its tendency to develop haze, but this particular example features remarkably clean glass. Serial number falls in the 3.29 million range, made in 1983 by Leitz Canada. Finished in black chrome. Leitz product code is 11800. Minimum focusing distance is 1 meter, with an optical construction of 4 elements in 4 groups.

Compared to the first-generation Tele-Elmarit 90mm, which was already known for its compactness, this version is even smaller and lighter. Actual measured weight is 225g. A lightweight, compact lens that’s easy to handle—ideal for street photography, travel, or simply keeping tucked away in your bag.

Filter size is E39.

There are a few pinpoint-sized spots of paint loss on the knurled section, but overall the barrel shows very little wear and remains in beautiful condition.
Fully overhauled in July 2025, with smooth helicoid action and a satisfyingly crisp aperture click. Rangefinder coupling and focus accuracy are excellent.

Most Tele-Elmarit 90mm 2nd version lenses suffer from noticeable haze on the inner or rear elements that cannot be removed by cleaning, making clean examples extremely rare. This lens shows only a very faint haze-like deterioration in the coating near the edge of the rear element, which has virtually no impact on image quality. For this model, the glass is remarkably clean, with no significant cleaning marks or other defects.

Test shots produced excellent results. Sample images are available in our gallery—please take a look.

Includes the original rubber 11251 hood, B+W Series 5.5 filter, and 11251 filter ring. A perfect compact setup to keep in your camera bag, ready to go.
