I bow to your wisdom, Fred. It is the nicest body cap I have
ever owned, I suppose.<G> Actually, It is a lens I love to
malign. We all have out vices. Others malign the M28mm f 2.8, or
the M85mm f2. I like both of them. It is WAY over priced in the
US market. In the Canadian market, it goes from realistically
priced (remember, I bought my two for an average price of
CAN$12.50 each) to the one Bucky was discussing at a hundred
Can$. I think that is likely a more reasonable value range. I
have seen them for as much as US$295.00, which if my math is
accurate (as if it ever is) would be close to the price of a
nice house in Canadian dollars.
