B%H sells (back order) a SMC-FA 2.8/200mm at 900 USD (sigh!) I certainly would love to have one. Until I win the Lotto, I'll "settle for" a SMC-K 2.5/200mm. That's if I can find one :-)

Here it is for refresher: http://www.daytonphoto.com/PAW/bkd_2167.htm I bought mine from KEH. I find that the optical performance is just wonderful with this lens - seems to be as good as the FA *200/2.8 that I had some time back. Here are a few more shot with it: http://www.daytonphoto.com/PAW/bkd_1080.htm http://www.daytonphoto.com/PAW/bkd_2171.htm http://www.daytonphoto.com/PAW/bkd_1257.htm -- Best regards, Bruce Saturday, September 17, 2005, 12:04:05 PM, you wrote: JB> Not very long ago, someone posted a very nice shot (brown/yellow leaves) JB> made with this lens.
