In clean, but optically and mechanically excellent, condition, either one will cost between $450.-550. Occasionally you will find one that has been serviced. These lenses are not cheap, but you will have a lens that you will use happily for 30-40 years and give to your grandchildren, if they can still find Tri-X and Kodachrome film. ;-) Seth LaK 9 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Frank Dernie" <Frank.Dernie@btinternet.com> To: "Leica Users Group" <lug@leica-users.org> Sent: Monday, November 15, 2004 3:08 AM Subject: Re: SV: [Leica] Re: I finally did buy one > The Canon 50 f1.2 is a bit soft for my taste, fast lenses of that era are > not so good.
