These sometimes go for less than $200 on eBay nowadays, generally in "minty" (<g>) condition. > Collected comments on the 50/2.8 F: Rated 4.9 out of 5.0 in Olle > Bjernulf�s comprehensive web listing of lenses.

The above quote sounds as if I had been the one being quoted. I still have two A 50/2.8 Macros, and I have long since sold off the two F 50/2.8's I tried (despite the fact that the F version seems to be a sharper design and goes to 1:1).
