For example, the 180 2.8 Elmarit in Germany, the 180 3.4 Apo Telyt in Canada. And I think R4 bodies were more expensive in Canada (after the exchange rate is taken into account) than in the U.S. Could be a tariff, but I just thought it was strange that a company partly based in Canada would have the effect.
