Thanks for posting. I needed to drool over something today.

The price seems going up and up. Worth it, though, sadly. Shot with mine today and it was simply amazing.

Yeah, I saw that too late last night when I got back from my poker game. I did well at the game, but not that well

I've seen this guy post stuff before; that's a mighty impressive collection of glass that he's sitting on!

If it finds it's way back to the $1600 range, I'll play, but then again, I'm not looking for one in "like new" condition.

I suppose I intend to shoot with my glass, not put it in a climate controlled case where it can be oogled for all of time.

I just checked on the final price. Looks like this lens went for $3,711.00. I thought they were high for asking anywhere near this price.

Holy cow, which one of you bought this lens?
