Review 3 of 3
Price Paid:
$3600.00
from eBay Summary: This is an awesome lens, probably the fastest long lens in any medium format. I used for about 1.5 years, and produced pictures that are in a whole new category. Pictures are very sharp, and color more saturated than any other long lens I''ve used.
And plus, the price is unbeatable! B&H was selling it for about $5000. I got mine in mint condition at 2/3 of it. Not bad. If it were a Mamiya or Hasseblad, it will be in 5 digit number. The best reason I choose a Pentax 645 system.
It also has an adaptor to use Pentax 35mm cameras on it. And I got mine ME Super for a song. And used it to shoot the moon pictures. Strengths: Optical quality, with ED glass.
And PRICE!!! Weaknesses: Heavy, needs solide tripod. But then, any lens in that calibar wouldn''t? Similar Products Used: EOS 300mm F2.8. Hasseblade 500mm f8. Customer Service: Not needed
