I don't understand your statement "got an offer for $15oo." Is the lens sold or not? The reason I ask is that is the asking price you placed on the lens on another bulletin board.If it's still for sale, how old is it? Did you buy it new and if so how long ago. Is it still in production and is your lens the current production model.Thanks
FWIW I this is a great price for a cracking lens, I'd buy it if I wasn't happy with my 50mm shift. Remember these were Hadtblei lenses tweaked by Phase and are great but rare, to get a good copy of a Hartblei ( via eBay) is hit and miss.Steve
