I bought mine for $130 or so. Good lens, although I found that you can
overuse it, and it is hard to get pictures where the gimmick of the
wide angle is less important than the content.
I haven't used it much since I realized that I took too many pictures
with it in Italy (one of them of Gianfranco working on an icecream,
picture I'm sure he wouldn't be too happy if I posted here :-) )
I do have a nice picture of Flavio showing off some freshly-cooked
pasta, which I took with this lens, though.
