It's a CANON CANON lens First time see one like this. And never saw the "CANON" tag in yellow. On some asphericals, the word "ASPHERICAL" is yellow. Conclusion - it's aspherical lens ))
P.S. mine is a usual one. white tags and silver back skirt. S.S.C, but no asph. _________________ “The hardest thing of all is to find a black cat in a dark room, especially if there is no cat.”

That seller just paints lenses, polishes them up, interchanges vanity rings, and lists them for 2-3 times their value. Sadly, when the lens arrives to you, you discover that the glass isn't nearly as pretty as the body. |

Not much different from gokevin really, except gokevin doesn't even bother with the art work before the 'revaluation'.
I'm still waiting for someone to start listing the U.S. Navy FD's as 'U.S. Navy Seal version, rare!' |

At least Kevin has accurate discriptions with lots of pictures, the only thing is the prices are a bit high and he will only come down 10% and nothing more, even if it's been listed for a year. _________________ A Manual Focus Junky...

I was looking at some lenses from a seller, they seem to look like they are in very good condition, some look like they have been doctored, as in steel wool to make the lens look new.... Or buffing
Opinions?
