I have two copies of this lens, one for my K20D, and the other was meant for
the K100D for my wife to use for macro. She's since gravitated towards my DA
35ltd macro (smaller, lighter,) so I've decided to put this one up for grabs here.
It's almost unused - still in box, still in plastic, manuals/papers, etc. My wife used
my other Viv 105 mostly before this was purchased, and this one has only been
on my camera a few times. It's basically new old stock - new in box - mint.
One just sold in the marketplace for $500 plus shipping/fees/duty. I'll put this one
up for
$450 shipped. (If it goes overseas, it can be declared however
the buyer desires for duty purposes, buyer's choice depending on their country's
arbitrary tax/tariff codes
With the cost of Zeiss and Voigtlander lenses where they are, this is an absolute
bargain, in my opinion, and it's an absolute joy to own and use. It's a trophy
lens, and If I didn't have two copies, you wouldn't see this here.
I'll post some shots of the lens in the box later, but rest assured it's mint.
Here are shots taken with my Viv S1 105 - mostly close focus, high-ISO. I'll
try to dig up some more actual low-ISO 1-1 macro shots to upload to flickr & post
later. But you can find stunning pro-level macro examples from this legend on
every photo hosting site on the net.
