Cinema lens, LOMO 40-120mm T3.1 Front-Anamorphic Zoom Lens Arri PL mount

350 PL 19—1A. Measuring 38cm in length and weighing over 7,5kg this imposing Russian-made front element anamorphic zoom lens allows focal selection between 40 and 120mm, at apertures ranging from f/3 to f/22. The lens is rumored to have beautiful bokeh and flares. The distortion factor is x2. The mount is Arri PL for 35mm Arriflex cinema cameras. Cosmetically there are some scuffs and scratches but there are no dents, no bangs  or signs of misuse. The aperture, focal selection and focusing rings are smooth. It comes with both lens caps as well as an integrated compendium, without any light leaks, which stretches out based on the focusing. The glass elements show signs of cleaning, small scratches as well as dust. There is no notable haze or lens separation. However, there is a noticeable cluster of fungus in the front anamorphic lens group in the lens periphery (not in the middle) as well as a chipped front element, also in the periphery of the, this time rectangular, lens.
