I'm seeing ads for new lenses selling for up to $9000 at various sites. I just got mine back from DAG for focus calibration. It now focuses perfectly on both my M8's. And that's with factory aligned rangefinders on the M8's. I'm using mine and don't plan on hiding it away. And it's mint and only 2 years old. Price to align it, $90 and worth every penny. Don does great work. Len On Aug 27, 2008, at 12:13 PM, Steve Barbour wrote: > > On Aug 27, 2008, at 8:57 AM, Leonard Taupier wrote: > >> Correction.
