 Yes, I found the same lens in a couple of other places;
http://www.ilfotoamatore.it/index_lista.asp?R=2&F=2 has them for 698,000
lire (=US$327) and
http://www.doerr-foto.de/service/pdf/objektiveundstative.pdf (Danubia/Dorr,
again) has them for what looks like 650DM (assuming I'm interpreting that
page correctly) which is US$301 -- so it's not even a particularly good
price for this lens in the first place.
