I don't know who would have an interest in this but there's a Chinon 45mm f/ 2.8 for sale on Ebay for 34 bucks. And no I'm not the one selling it. But 40-50mm seems scarce, so for anyone who's looking here you go.

You all can stop looking. I found it and bought it.

I'd been wanting the Pentax M40 pancake or the 40XS, but this will do for a lot cheaper. Thanks for the heads up, kxjiru.

Hmmmm...I tested my version and it worked when I posted it, but not now. The URL changed between page displays. This is part of the URL forwarding mechanism for PF and I have had problems with it in the past.

Most browsers have a maximum length for URLs and PF is breaking that rule.

Did you notice there was an M 40 pancake listed at a similar price point? (Sorry...could not resist...)

I didn't know this lens existed, interesting to know. Is it any good?

There's another one there now for $95.
