Actual I can't remember because I have looked for several different lenses and might mix them. But I noticed that a SMC A 20/2.8 went for a price I didn't want to spend by the way. I have already the wonderful FA* 24/2.0 and I am not sure if I am really in need of a 20mm. But there is a little bit of titillation ... :-) Just have a look at this, almost 6 days left: http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=2917377496&category=12873
And you think it is a beauty and not such bad? I think I have to see some pictures ...
