I've had an eye open for the Chinon 45mm f/2.8 for years but never seen one for what I'd consider a reasonable price. They're pretty rare.

When I bought mine there were several available for far more than I was interested in paying.

That seems to be the difference... rare = not available or rare = not available reasonably priced...

I think this lens is one that sometimes uses the first to justify the second...

This place needs a little bit of work... I don't know what the deal is with the butterflies. Part of a (failed) beautification strategy, perhaps? z-70/Sigma 35-70 Zoom Master/HP5+.

I picked up an Auto Revuenon 45mm f2.8 a couple of years ago for £70 including postage from Germany. that seems reasonable. I think it may be the same as the Chinon, but with a different name.
