Har! Well, I just ordered the fisheye. I think it could be useful for some saleable images and I can "get by" with the Sigma EX300/2.8 for a while longer. The A*300/2.8 I bid on went for over $1900 (though there's no telling what maximum bid the winner had entered - frightening thought). The main thing that kept me bidding higher for than lens was the somewhat lengthy minimum focusing distance. I'm going to wait for an A*400/2.8 or get an FA*300/2.8 eventually. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
