Ok, I was looking at a chart of the exchange rate for the last month. It
had gone from 103.83 yen/dollar to 109.11 yen/dollar. The low point
appears to have been some time in August, with the dollar strengthening
since then.
When did the price change take place?

Well the charts for the year show that I can buy less yen for the
dollar now than at the beginning of the year, so the yen appears to be
appreciating. Well at least to me, but maybe the chart I saw was
wrong?

Except that the dollar has been the one appreciating. Japanese goods
should be less expensive.

Did you mean it the other way, appreciation of the yen... (which makes
Japanese products more expensive...)

The word is that this was due to the appreciation of the dollar
relative to the yen.
I had a little money come in, so I've just ordered a K-1, despite
the price increase. For now I'll pair it mainly with the film era
FA 24-90 (plus many primes that I have).
