Dear All,
For those of U who are not in the know, I mail ordered a Zuiko 90/2 Mac lens
from "Midwest Photo Exchange" in Columbus, Ohio , USA.......
Rushed to the huge postal HQ here yesterday 5th Jan ( Its really huge and
expensive looking bldg, should have taken some pics there to test the lens)
but reached there at closing time ... rats !!!! The uniformed customs
officers patiently told me from behind expensive looking closed shutters, I
would have to return tomorrow.....
Collected the parcel today and opened it with my son......
Yes, everything is fine (phew) ..... except for the damn US$20 customs tax
....which I couldn't get the slightest possibility of him waiving it !!!
The lens is excellent to mint condition , glass perfect with the nicest
greenish reflection in its coating.. The focussing barrel is huge altho the
real glass carrying barrel is small at only 55mm filter size..... I wonder
why ?
It came in a nice gold and black box in excellent condition.....
Had International Warranty / instructions / price tag in Japanese 28,000 yen
/ a booklet of tips solely on macro applications and recommendations.... etc
...
I am most pleased.....
except for one thing......
Its all in Japanese !!!!!!!
Peace
TMLee
...anyone here knows Jap... or have the English version ?
