Are there any more of these around new? I might like one but don't know where to look. The new version is very much out of my price range.

Middle age is when you can finally afford the things that a young man could truly enjoy.

Would have liked to see a glut at the end with a sale. Not to be I guess. Not happening considering the price increase of the II. I'm in the market for one myself and have been waiting for the right one here or on FM.

Obviously, he is a long time member there, just not doing much buy-n-sell. He stated the lens was bought about 5 years ago, long before the current feedback system there.
