I can think of better ways to spend $10,000. (Assuming I had $10,000 to spend!)

Regardless of how rare it is (and I believe it's very rare indeed), that strikes me as utter madness...

It does include "Make an offer"

Good point. A smart and savvy buyer could probably snap it up for as little as $9,500... Leaving more than enough for a decent UV filter

I wonder if it can be de-clicked for video use?

There was one in our marketplace, sometime within the last 3 years. I recall it being in MUCH nicer condition, and the seller was asking only $5k USD.

**UncleVanya** · 11-07-2016, 08:22 AM

I was surprised to see it doesn't even come with the period correct caps.

victormeldrew · 11-07-2016, 08:43 AM

You'd struggle to spend that much on a brand new 100mm lens from any manufacturer. Is it really that great, or is the idea that it's a collector's piece like a first edition comic or some such?

**sergysergy** · 11-07-2016, 09:14 AM

it is a very rare lens but I think the price is ridiculous.

**RKKS08** · 11-07-2016, 11:24 AM

Anyone realized that the offer is in aussie dollars?

**BigMackCam** · 11-07-2016, 11:30 AM

Yes, but that's still over US$7,500...

It's been up for over a month, I've been watching it with interest.
