There are quite a few of these auctions, where the seller reads the
lettering on the filter, and thinks that it is the lens description. I won
the following:

'Olympus 35mm auto, OM-system, w/Vivitar 49mm'

which turned out to be an OM-1 with 50mm Zuiko (and filter!), together with
the good leather everready case for a camera and f1.2 lens.

Another poor description was

'Olympus OM Macro Best Overall plus lens hood'

Which was an OM-mount 135mm/2.8 Vivitar Close  Focus (to 1:2), which can be
found in Monaghan's Cult Lenses (very sharp).

A fine lens. The way the auction was worded, I'm sure many people missed
the fact that it wasn't just a filter, but a filter and a lens. Terrible
way to list an item.
