Well there is a EBC Fujinon 135mm on Swedish ebay. I told myself no lenses that I don't need this month, got alot of other expenses. But something tells me its a real bargain at 30$. :p
So, should I get it even though I can't afford it?

Ah; well, some say you can never have too many 135s. More importantly, the EBC Fujinons are very good, so why not go for it?

It's quite easy with 135mml enses to reach an "indecent number" ! It is not so easy with 28, 35 and 200 ! The last I won on ebay last week is a rebranded Enna Ennalyt 2,8/135 ... 1€ +p&p . Flea market "gave" me two weeks ago a strange Pentacon 2,8/135 "made in japan" , physically close to the Makinon 2,8/135 with the same optical quality ... .
6/8 in a year is not so much beetween 5 and 25 € . I only "collect" M42, M39, LTM39, Kiev/Contax , Pentax K mount and Exakta , + T2 and Tamron Adaptall . Ebay , Flea-Markets, Antiques shops, Photo fairs, friends, family are the "providers" , plus this forum ! |

I've only got a few and that's enough for me. Funny thing, I thought one would do, but there's always a reason to buy another.
