[Hacker]

Is the plastic one really so expensive compared to the metal one?

Makes you feel bad for all the folks who threw the stupid things in the trash sixty or so years ago, doesn't it?

There is only $30 difference between the two.

Both are expensive! I would expect to get the lens and the case for those prices.
