Hi Chris, Seems a bit high to me. B&H lists the SMC-FA 50/1.4 at US $185 (about CDN $300, right?), and the 50/1.7 at US $135. Of course, if you bought a CDN $300 lens in -- e.g. -- Ontario, then paid the 15% federal and provincial taxes, you'd be up to just about $350. Not sure what you'd pay to ship a new lens from B&H, but I'd guess it would be less than CDN $50. Hope this helps. Bill Peifer Rochester, NY - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
