art_major Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 <p>Hey guys,</p><p>I was thinking about getting the Voigtlander Macro APO-Lanthar 125mm f/2.5 lens. I know the markup is huge on it in the used market because of the limited quantities. Does anyone know what the original price was on this lens? thanks. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jean_yves_mead Posted December 25, 2014 Share Posted December 25, 2014 Looking back at CameraQuest's for-sale page: starting at $675 for all versions in 2002, in regular but limited production. $639 in mid-2007, when the last production run was offered; by December 2007 the price was $729 (PK and OM mount) or $1500 (EOS) for the few remaining lenses after production ended.

alan_krantz Posted December 26, 2014 Share Posted December 26, 2014 <p>I think I paid $400 for a new one near the end of the production run.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
