Ouch!! This is very, very expensive in my opinion.
These 110 lenses are becoming "a thing to have" at the moment. On eBay in the UK, they are now going for amounts that I personally consider completely unjustified in terms of the optical quality on offer. I have the 18, 24 and 50mm and consider them cute but little better than toys. They all suffer from absolutely terrible edge performance until well stopped down (and this is on m4/3 which has almost exactly the same frame size as the 110 film so they should be a perfect match). Hopefully, once people realise they are basically not very good, then prices will drop again. Buy them then for "a bit of fun", but don't be tempted to pay more than peanuts for them.
I wouldn't buy them again at the prices they go for now. In fact, had I known how mediocre they are, I wouldn't pay the prices for them that I did. One lives and learns. Having said that, I would like to try the 70mm..........(and I did enjoy making my own adapter).
