1 Those were not my shots, the llocation is Kiev and they are promo
shots by Hartblei
2 Ballpark costs for the Hartblei/Ze!ss lenses are rumoured to be
comparable to H@sselblad for similar focal lengths
Based on Dist@gon T* IF 4/40 Euro4000 say USD5500
Based on Pl@nar T* 2,8/80) Euro1500 say USD2000
Based on Makro-Pl@nar T* 4/120 Euro 2500 say USD3500
Makes the Zuiko 24/3.5 look the bargain it truly is :-)
3 Mutilating bellows, shame on you, Jan, for not paying attention, for
the mythical Hama T/S bellows, 320079918520 on the auction site was pointed
out (and it even had OM mounts, but nobody mentioned that). Went for a mere
USD600 after 25 bids. So there may well be a market for your mutilations!

Nice shots! You put it to good use. It really has a distinctive look.

Do you have a ballpark cost?

I've also had plans in the back of my head for years to mutilate a bellows
so it will do view camera movements. The only Zuiko that would be up to that
(IMHO) would be the 135/4.5.
