He's talking about the comparison of the 15/4.5 Voigtlander to the Zeiss
16/8 Hologon, even though he doesn't mention the Zeiss lens by name. The
original M-mount Zeiss Hologon is $5-10,000, if you can find one. Most
people have new ones converted from a Contax G2 mount to a Leica mount for a
total of $2,500 or so.
IMO, there's really no choice. WHY would you not buy the 15/4.5 at $250,
WITH a finder?

Read this sentence from the listing carefully. "Lens is of course MUCH
and MUCH cheaper then the "original" and in tests these lenses are even
as good !!"
Poor English or ?????

Item # 1346958342 . Someone is selling 100 15mm NIB
voightlander lenses for apparently a lot less than
they should cost.
So how do I pay the guy? He wants money orders, bank checks, or wire
transfers...Any of the NL folks here got suggestions? I could stand to
have
one of these on the front of my IIIc.
