I bought my 2/35mm ASPH in October at Bara Photo in Brussels (very close to the Midi station where the Thalys from Paris arrives) for 45.900 BEF, or 7.463 FRF. New, official import, not a demo. It is available at this kind of price or slightly more at a couple of other good dealers here in Brussels, Photo Alpha and Campion Photo. The addresses and phone numbers are: Bara Photo, Place Bara 27, 1070 Bruxelles, +32.2.521.80.79 Campion Photo, Rue St. Boniface 13, 1050 Bruxelles, +32.2.512.13.31 Photo Alpha, Ave. des Celtes 5, 1040 Bruxelles, +32.2.733.74.88 If your travels do not include Brussels, you could also try this dealer in Amsterdam: Foto Nivo-Schweitzer, Haarlemmerdijk 114, 1013 JH Amsterdam, +31.20.623.31.59, e-mail: pieter_krigee@compuserve.com In any of these places you will get a better deal than the ridiculous price in France. I have shopped at all four and been satisfied every time.
