That seems like a good price for it. It's life span is problematic as
the separation can happen while it's simply sitting on a shelf. The
problem was an aspheric element that was a spherical glass lens molded
into an optical plastic element with the same refraction index. (It
shows as one lens element in the optical formula

I wonder if at 50 Euros it would be worth the try r not.

The issue with this lens is that it's quite prone to unrepairable

I know this lens was well regarded in film era but what about its
digital performances?
Would it be worth chasing it?
