I received one as part of a Super Program I won recently on eBay. You probably outbid me at the wire over the weekend on this one. The reason I bid on it is the one that came with the camera seemed unwilling to close down further than f11. Finally through some combination of moves I got it to move to "A" and it works well there. I think I had removed it and then put it back on and held the button down right from the start. Now I'm afraid to move it but will have to eventually when I need to control the aperture myself. Hopefully there is some trick some one can pass on.

I just won an e-bay auction for one. Also, how does it compare optically to the M 50/1.4? BUTCH Each man had only one genuine vocation - to find the way to himself. Hermann Hess (Demian)
