Visoflex Adapter with internal 39mm Threads. > Thanks for advice. the elmar is currently selling for between $350 (silver) and $800 (black) and depending on condition visoflex III - $250 - $350 with prism bellows II with black 65 mm elmar recently sold for $595 the other bits and pieces could add up to $150 - $250 depending on condition So the $1400 does seem a bit high - though not necessarily - depending on actual condition. The big question: Do you really want all these bits? If so it would take some time to collect them. If not - you're probably paying too much. And of course some of these bits require spending more money to use them. unless you already have 90, 135 elmar, hektor, etc. Regards, George Lottermoser george at imagist.com http://www.imagist.com http://www.imagist.com/blog http://www.linkedin.com/in/imagist
