[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I have tried to get older design lenses and even they are on the long wait list. My local dealer has exactly 10 new Nikon lenses in stock, and most of them are the 18~200 Zoom, or a few wide to medium tele zooms. I have had a 50/1.4 and an 85/1.4 on order for 8 months, and have yet to get even a estimate on delivery. I think I could get the 80/1.4 Leica R lens quicker, too bad it is so damn expensive.
