Got this one with all original packing and a TX-PK adapter for 23 dollars including shipping. I've paid nearly twice that for just the TX-PK adapter. They are getting harder and harder to find.

Congratulations! Excellent find! Yours looks quite nice compared to mine.I got one last fall and have used it a few times in our gardens.This unassuming little lens shot excellent wide open on a 50D for some fairly good images....it's reported to shoot well wide open though.I didn't shoot it in the mid aperture range where it reportedly doesn't shoot quite as good (I probably should though) Did shoot it stopped down to f11 and got some nice images as well.The five prime TX lenses I've acquired so far have done much better then I expected. |

Thanks Attila. It was quite a nice acquisition. Fills a hole in my collection plus the adapter will give me three now.

Haven't had the chance to use mine yet but the TX and T4 lens are noted for their wide open sharpness. Thanks for the comments.

LOL I have to enjoy this one. My wife made me swear off buying anymore after I exhaust my small savings on a few more lens.
