I just mentioned the former as an aside in any case. I do want the 1.4, but I would prefer to get a used one if I could at the price level I'm used to for 2nd hand Pentax equipment. But I notice that the price is nothing like what I'm used to, and I'm wondering why. I don't think that's pointless speculation about the availability of new items. > At the current level of demand, there's enough in the warehouse in this > country for a decade. > Well, what I and others have been trying to say is that judging from the used prices the demand would seem to be very high, i.e. there is something here that just doesn't add up.

Now, you do agree that I shouldn't have to order one in order to find out what the price is, or if it can actually be supplied, don't you? - Toralf -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
