how much do lomo roundfronts go for these days?

[astigmatic]

Specifically 50mm 1:2 with focus gear and in pl mount?

http://www.reduser.net/forum/showth...und-Front-Anamorphics-PL-Mount-Marked-in-feet (35/50/75/100) $45K - take your guess from here or http://www.ebay.com/itm/Lomo-anamor...81944242?pt=Camera_Lenses&hash=item2c7d5f14b2 (35/50/75 $46K)

I'd say a good average would be in the $10-$15K range for a PL, geared and good condition 50mm Roundfront.

Wish I'd bought a set back in 2010 when they were $15K a set (used to average $3/4K each).

yes.. $45k, and nobody buy them.. it could be $60k as well..

A good condition one should go for around $5000 to $6000. But if you buy from a seller in US it will be more expensive.

Prices sure did climb, how about square fronts?

I think a good square front these days is going for $2800-4000. Glad I bought my 35mm SF for CHEAP before everything got crazy!

The ones on Ebay (3 lenses for 45K) are overpriced. But the X4 lenses on Reduser are closer to the general market price now (especially if they're in good condition).

Agreed - 5K to 6K is the type of range for one that's seen better days... I'd expect lenses like the Reduser ones to go for close to 9/10K.

Anywhere really, I'd expect a set of Squarefronts to reach 4-5K for each lens (if they're PL, geared and in shooting condition). Honestly, I think you'd be lucky to get a set for less than $15K in the current climate. Also, the Squarefront 35mm ends up in many DP's lens kits (as the Roundfront 35mm is heavy and barrels a lot), so the 35's tend to comand higher prices.

Of course, all this can change quickly - and we're talking about decent lenses here... not the rubbish stuff that appears on Ebay all the time.

I looked at my 35 last night and the lens is full of dust:undecided I'ts been in a case for a couple of years, I have no idea how that happened.

Yup, same here

Plus my Fotons and Squarefronts.

Crazy prices now, definitely a sellers market.

Nightmare

A trip to Olex might be in order

Well I just posted my 50mm round front for sale. I hope I didn't set the starting bid too high. I think I'll just keep my 35mm, there are screws on the front that look to be holding the front lens on, maybe I can clean it myself.

Answer; too much.
