I put a bid in on this - not enough, obviously, - hope it does the business
:-)
Also put in bids on 3 of the other lenses - in each case was sniped by a few
dollars by "neopan2" - olympususa according to one of the other posts on the
list. Wonder what the BIN will be next time we see them... :-(

I got the 16/3.5 fisheye... I haven't seen it yet, but the price is right.
Longtime listers will recall that I have a 16/3.5 fisheye in good shape in
most ways but missing the rearmost two elements due to fungus damage in the
past... so this lens will be a parts lens if the 'front element scuffs' are
really an issue. Otherwise I'll just use it as-is.
Longtime listers may also recall that I have a 8/2.8 fisheye with similar
missing rearmost elements, again due to fungus damage. As I've previously
mentioned a $ubstantial Finder'$ Fee will be paid for someone pointing me to
an 8/2.8 with usable rear elements. Note that my front element is fine... I
have to figure one somewhere ended up on that front element and still has a
good rearmost elements... but I'm still looking.

OM-'s of all sorts, and no OM-oney...
One fisheye off the short list...
