Price increase on 50mm f1.4

jab1617 · 10-01-2007, 11:32 AM

Hi All
Noob, and new to the forum, glad I've found a place with so many experts. Just bought a K100D with a 50mm-200mm DA lens.

I'm interested in purchasing the SMC-FA 50mm f/1.4 lens.
I 've found that the price of this lens has gone up in the past couple of weeks, by about $30-$50, ignoring the now expired rebate.
Pentax SMCP-FA 50mm f/1.4 LENS with one year usa warranty |BuyDig.com

Being new to Pentax and digital photography in general, is this common for lens to go up in price?

Does anyone know if the rebate program will be extended again?

Thanks ,
Jeff

Still $189@ Adorama:

Got mine just under the wire for the rebate-at 189, still a great price!
