Lars,
You've got it bad. Buying a 180/2 on an impulse??!! :-)) But really,
congrats on a great lens. I wish I had a use for such a beast.
You should check out the e-SIF for additional info at
http://www.veluwen.demon.nl/om-sif/lensgroup/180mmf2.htm.
P.S., I shouldn't talk about your purchase. I just bought a 90/2 Apo
Summicron M for my Leica M6...$1,900, but it's the best 90mm out there
these days, and it's only money.

Hi,
I just got myself a very nice gift for Christmas: a 180 mm/2.
It was in an ad in the recycler magazine's Thursday issue for 10.000 DKK
(c. 1400 $). I saw the ad Saturday and thought "darn, it's gone by now",
but called him Sunday anyway, and he still had the lens. I don't know if
Zuikoholism is not widespread in Denmark, or it is because of Christmas,
but he hadn't got any calls at all.
I got the lens for 8000 DKK (c. 1100 $)(without even asking for a
reduction) which is of course a pretty big sum of money, but the new price
here is something like 8000 $, and this lens has been used very little.
The only problem with this purchase is that there is no money left for
presents for my family ;-)
BTW, does any Olympus literature have information about this lens? It is
not included in my Olympus Lens Book, though the 250 mm and 350 mm are.
A merry Christmas to all on this list.
