It's really a piece of gem....the initial pain for the high cost =

this lens as I've owned it since 92 and it has produced one of the most =

I doubt you can buy one off the shelf here in Singapore as it is not =
so frequent for a customer to just walk in and buy one....instead I =
believe you can place an order at one of the better stores like Cathay =
Photo or some other serious camera shops around the Peninsula Plaza =
area. You may have to place a downpayment of around 200f the sales =
price and wait up to 3 months for physical possession. I believe Cathay =
photo has an online quotation service at www.cathayphoto.com.sg. Check =
out prices at the various shops before placing your order. Good luck.=20

magazine ?
