It was introduced with the Summicron 35/2.0 ASPH LTM lens late in 1999. This 35mm finder has been discontinued, although many dealers still have stock. It appears that it has been priced higher than the 21/24/28mm finders, although the factory had exported it at the same price as the other three finders.
