What a shock!:-)

(Although pretty much everyone seems to agree that it is an excellent lens,
especially for the ludicrously low price for a lens of this type.)

Pop Photog just reviewed the 12mm and thought it was excellent.

i ordered a voigtlander 12mm.  fun, fun, fun.

and, in a total aside, a friend is giving me an old mamiya 1000 DTL he
found in his dad's closet.  i'd like to use it as a macro camera, since
i sold my canon macro lens after the kazakh incident.  i always ended up

using the EOS totally manually anyway, so what difference will it make?

anyhow, do any of you gurus want to recommend a good 50mm or maybe 100mm

macro?  i think it's pentax screw mount.  i've found some looking around

on KEH, but can't really gauge much about quality.

danke,
brad
