LOL!!!  Go get 'em, Mike!!!  :-)))

While I agree with your discourse on the humble 50/1.8...  it *IS* a fine 
little lens...  its value *IS* rather minimal.  Unfortunately, you see them 
all the time...  pawn shops, camera stores, etc.  Hell, even the camera 
counter at a local London Drugs has a couple of them gathering dust.

So, regrettably, they're not "worth" much.  Too bad I can't buy 6 of 
them, string them together, and make myself a fine 300/10.8 cuz that's 
the *only* way I could afford a prime super-tele!  :-)))

Regards,

Chris

P.S.  This discussion and the glut of bodyless 50/1.8 lenses has made 
me begin to wonder...  do they copulate and reproduce like bunnies or 
what?!?!?  :-)
