Examples: 21mm f3.4 SA rated as BGN (bargain) go for $1079-$1429. Rated EX a chrome one is $1299. A 50mm f2.8 Elmar collapsible rated BGN goes for $349. A 75mm f1.4 Summilux at LN- is $1799. The same lens at EX+ is $1669. Seems like (a) strange pricing and (b) far from bargains. M. - -- Martin V. Howard, Application Systems Laboratory, | Dept. of Comp. & Info.
