I used it with the 1.4x APO extender to get the 560mm at f4 when the main lens is wide open at f2.8. I was shooting wide open. On the used market, I think they go for $6,500 to $7,000 USD. I have had mine for about five years and purchased it from the Leica distributor in Canada. It was their trade show demo.
