You're talking 2:1! Nowhere near that.
Check out a currency converter, Frank.
According to today's paper, the Euro is standing at just over 20% above the
USD. In value.
In other words, you need 1.203 USD to buy a Euro.
€140 would work out to be US $168 and change...

There's one with a smaller diameter filter ring
(62mm), and there's one with a much larger filter ring
(don't know the size).
In my hands, the K 24mm f2.8 has chromatic aberration out

Of course such a lens (the 19) will rarely see an extensive use

I have the Viv 19/3.8 and it's not a bad lens. It is subject to flare so be
careful about where you aim it.

Hi Simon, and welcome to the list.
In the range 17/18-35, I have been very pleased with my Sigma 18-35,
which preceded the 17-35, I think. Very sharp, good contrast, and not
too much distortion for a lens of this specification.
