Hello from new forum member from Finland.
I just got Olympus e-pl1 very cheaply and I would like to have something faster than my old Tokina 28 mm/2.8 and above seems to be quite compact and much cheaper than Samyang 25 mm.
Does anybody know where I could find that lens in Europe? Every one seems to be purchasing it from B&H photo from USA but I would really avoid the customs if possible. |

The later link is major reason for thinking to purchase one. Quality is ok for the price. I just would like to get it from Europe.
B&H is selling it for 119 USD:

There is one seller on US Ebay selling them for $80 OBO, but US only. Might be worth asking them if they will ship to the UK.

Yes. I will probably do that. I think that 170 USD+vat is too much for that lens, same for Fujinon lenses. |

Have you checked into the Pentax C32500KP. It's a 2/3" instead of a 1" but you can get good deals on them sometime. One just sold on US Ebay for $26. I was planing on bidding on it but missed the end of the auction.
I'm not sure if they have been tested on m4/3, or not. _________________

Yes, I think that I will start to bid on these. I am in no great hurry (just ordered Samyang 14 mm and have a Chinese noname 25 mm/1.2 and Tokina 28 mm/2.8+several others in Pentax mount).
The Chinese one is for 1/2" image circle but it is quite usable (at least at photographing beer bottle labels). 35 mm/1.7 costs only 25 USD so will probably get it too.
Problem with USA is shipping costs. For example B&H wants 50 USD for delivery of that lens. |

The ones for 2/3" are not good - they are ok if you use 6:6 aspect ratio only. On normal 4:3 you see the image circle. _________________ Stefan
