It's an addiction, really. When I got my 24-48mm zoom, I thought, man, who needs anything wider than this? Then I bought Chang-Sang's Vivitar 3.8 19mm, and thought, no way will I ever go any wider! Last month I got the Zenitar 16mm fisheye, and I'm wondering how much wider I can go. <vbg> BTW, Boris, if you like pristine, don't buy any equipment from me. By the time I'm finished with it, you're lucky if there's any paint left on it. <g> It's all moot, because (a) I rarely sell, but if I did, I'd certainly tell everyone the actual condition of my wares. Well, congratulations on your new enablement. Look forward to some pix real soon. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
