Good catch, Dennis. We'll see how the E- looks in a few days. ;-)

Nice buy.

I bought a 35mm Limited that was rated lower than that (either V or G), and it looked like new. You should be fine.

Thanks, Dennis, I hope so. I've been stung a few times on used lenses but I feel comfortable buying from Adorama.

If it's not sold by tonight, I'll just walk my way downtown to Adorama and check it out in person haha.. if I like it, I'll buy it. If not, I'll post pictures of it to this thread.

Very well done

For not much more (possibly less in some places) than a new 35/2.4, this was a no-brainer.

I don't think we'll likely see FA Limiteds at prices like these anytime soon.

Adorama's about as good as KEH when it comes to grading their used equipment. I've bought some used stuff from them a few times and have never been disappointed. This is a great deal for not much more than the cost of a DA 35.

DennisH · 05-25-2016, 08:07 AM

FYI, it just allowed me to add one to my cart, so there might be more available.

pathdoc · 05-25-2016, 08:23 AM

Go for it, guys, go go go go go. I already have one, so I don't need this.

Good catch, I'll visit anyways and see.

Hmmm. I hope that's what's happening. My order status shows "pending"...

I don't want one, but I'm thinking about it anyway. LBA is a beast.

Not sure what the "but" is? But for that price I'll give it a shot too!
