Dale (my business partner) will bring it back in his carry-on luggage hopefully reducing the radiation to just one dose. I will still pay the GST here in the land of the taxed via Dale when he clears Customs at the airport here. I will email you off list if HCE carries it. The collapsible 50 sounds like a great find. I tend to avoid these lenses simply because I don't want to make the mistake of forgetting not to use it with my M5.
