There one available at KEH, rated UG. Having bought a CZ with BGN rating which is most likely be called excellent at the 'bay, I would not hesitate in getting this one (had I not already have it). And remember, KEH has superb return policy.

I agree that KEH is fantastic, especially with its grading policy - But I'd still be weary of UG-rated items without knowing how ugly. I would call first and see if I can't find out exactly what's wrong with it before buying.

Interesting and cheap.
By coincidence I took a zuiko 2/24 from KEH in UG condition cheeeeep!
It has 3 deep "digs" in the glass.
They assured me I could return it and it is a late model.
When it arrived the I painted those marks black and compared with a mint one (now in the bag of a fellow member here). There is no difference if I use a hood.
For those looking to get high end user glass Cheap....KEH is super Very Happy

Off-topic: Andy, have you tried using the Zuiko glass on your M-bodies?

No I have not. Was not aware of an adapter but, I don't see why not.
I did buy a C/Y to M adapter.
Tried it out with the D21 and D18 before I sold it.
I'll be posting a comparison off 21mm lenses both reflex and RF shot on the MCool in a few weeks.
Leaving for a 2 or 3 week adventure tomorrow.

I wouldn't hesistate with a "BGN" listing at KEH --- I've bought two in the past and all they needed were basic CLA to get them spic and span, but I gotta say, "UG" label scares me Very Happy Especially since you could probably snatch one of these for a little over double that price on the 'Bay for, at least what will be listed as, a good copy.

Then again, KEH does have a good return policy (which I've never used so don't know first hand)...

I was not aware of it too until I see this image below. He called this collection TriOMar, which I thought is pretty creative and funny. I think B&H has the adapter on special order.



Looking at this, really makes me want to get a M-body.

TriOMar? Great!! Very Happy
Amazing that you can use those lenses on an M8.
