albanv123 Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 I bought this lens for 235 euro's (about 300 dollars) at a photo sale. Is this a rip off or a good price and is the lens any good (compared to later versions). Thanks, Alban. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmarfudd Posted February 7, 2007 Share Posted February 7, 2007 Seems high, I know the 2 cam version sells for under $200. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Smith Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 It's an OK price, but I found the lens disappointing - not up to Elmart V2 or the current Summicro-R 35mm. Soft into the corners at anything wider than about f5.6. It is flare resistant and gives a pleasant image -- if you don't want it razor sharp into the corners and edges.
