I actually tried but I couldn't get it to actually put up the pricing for delivery to my home! pick up only and I am not running to Toronto for a lens.
I even tried using multiple web browsers in case it was just poor coding on the site. Still saying that that is an issue. Hope it gets to you fast.

My phone didn't want to let me call Canada though, very strange. but it saved me some money by stopping my LBA in its tracks!

I emailed them about the lenses, then asked them to call me... they did...

and an A50/1.4...

I'm pretty sure that I'll be listing the DA 50/1.8 and the A50/1.7 for sale here...

Tonight's Dinner entrée, herbed Goat Chops, medium and home fries with Colby-jack cheese. Yummy!
Quick snap with my K-50 and FA 50 2.8 macro @ f/8, 1/30s, ISO 200, DXO standard profile, then 90% jpg before upload.

Dave is always posting yummy looking food so I had to post what I made for dinner tonight.

I thought that it was a little early also. I realize my timing for spring is a bit warped since I have at least 6 to 10 weeks more of snow and cold but pussy willows already getting fuzzy? Maybe I just forgot when they come out. They say the first thing to go is the memory, at least I think that someone told me that.

Yes they seem early to me. I am seeing other things starting to show buds also. Oh this crazy weather we have in MO. 75 degrees today and a low of 27 tomorrow night, then back to warm again.
