Wow, that lasted a whole hour and 45 minutes. Reminds
me of the Plabel Makina 67 on Ebay Germany last year
that went BUY IT NOW for just under $300!

Hmmm...  No, "they" haven't said that too much, at least to me.  I
have heard the mermaids singing, each to each.  I do not think that
they will sing to me.  ;-)

Seriously, we've had some "FA 77/1.7 Ltd versus FA* 85/1.4"
discussions here, and we certainly have had ~many~ "85 vs 85 vs
85..." discussions, but I'm not sure I've heard very much comparing
these two specific lenses, Bill.  Anyone with both 77/1.8 and 85/1.8
experience care to share?

Do they also say it is better than the 77mm LTD?

Speaking of eBay, one just went (almost immediately, not too
surprisingly) for a $225 USD BIN price on eBay
(http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=1333093661).

Yup.  And, they'll keep on saying it...

And NOT on eBay...go figure...


At http://www.vintagevisuals.com

look under PENTAX...(what else)

The want $275 for it.

Interestingly, most of their stuff is listed in Canadian Dollars...but not 
this one?

If it IS in CD's that would be about $175 US...I'd say that's a deal.

I can't remember if I've ever purchased anythjing from these guys so I can't 
vouch for them.

Thought I'd throw it out there.

Everyone keeps saying what a great lens this is.

Go get it!
