I'm wondering if anyone has owned or had any experience with this lens?

There is nothing in the lens review database on it to get an idea of quality, price, etc.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, its almost like it has filter built into it and puts a soft touch to everything. It could make an interesting lens for portraits to add a soft touch.

Any ideas what the going price is?

One sold on this forum recently, I think it was under $250. Search the "sold" section and you might find the transaction.

Thanks and you are correct. Only found one doesn't seem like there are many of these that come up for sale.
