True in many cases. Sometimes really nice things are amazingly cheap, however. I pulled out a Spotmatic ES that I bought from a PDML member for not very much money last year. I have a Super Multi Coated Takumar 50mm F1.4 mounted on it that I essentially got for free. The construction of that lens is sooooo nice it makes even the limited lenses feel cheap.
That Spotmatic has had 30 or so years to depreciate. They were quite expensive when they were new.
