Thanks,

I was lucky after selling my first one with a base bid of 800 euro
that won the auction. Seller had 0 feedback, but I googled his name
and he was an Olympus austria employee. The lens came in the soft
pouch of the E-system 7-14 lens! There have been a lot for sale before
summer, but now it is quiet again.

The nice thing about the 24 shift is that it is sharp into the
corners, even when shifted to it's maximum. and there is only a very
slight bit of vignetting in the extremes. I had my 18mm with me but
didn't use it. With the 5D one can get a stitched 18mm view over a
much larger area... coming into S2 territory sensor wise. I think I'll
sell the 18mm! I'm curious about the c@non 24 shift mkII, that tilt
could be very nice, but the size of that lens!
