I checked. It has apparently been sold.
I always wanted this lens and _almost_ popped for the one you mention at
B&H (at least I assume they've had the very same article in inventory all
this time) a couple years ago, then backed off. The price is awful steep
for a mid-range zoom, and owning the 35-80 would require me to invest in
yet another set of filters. Also, I already own and habitually use (it's
almost never off one of my bodies) the 35-70/3.6, so it would be that much
harder for me to rationalize the acquisition of it's BIG "little brother"
based on some real or supposed increase in the quality of my work out in
the street. Still and all . . . I'd kill to have one.
How much did you say yours might go for, Tom? <g>

I'll be particularly interested as I have a LNIB to sell.
B&H still shows them as being in stock. Bill Barber
