Larry, I haven't been to Biggs in 15 years when I was on a business trips to Charlotte. Charlotte Camera was the pro shop in the suburbs and Biggs was the old in-town store. I think I picked up a used A50/1.7 and found the aperture ring was cracked clean thru. The ring worked, but it left me wondering why/how they sold it. Whether they are the same manaagement or not, who knows. Sadly, Charlotte Camera closed. Regards, Bob S.
