A heads up for RF645 users with deep pockets:

Deep pockets indeed! The seller has twice offered his whole camera package with the body matched to this lens, but evidently priced it too high as he got no bids. Could be the same with this 135mm...

I'm guessing this one goes for more than $1500. Easily.

I want it, have the body with the right framelines, but that's just too rich for me. I probably wouldn't use the 135mm enough to justify that kind of cost.

It probably is the same lense. After all, there aren't too many in circulation!

My guess is that it will close around $2,000.

It might indeed go for big bucks, but when I said "Could be the same with this 135mm..." I was continuing the thought, "...evidently priced it too high as he got no bids." Sorry for the ambiguity! I'm guessing he won't get any bids on the lens alone either, though certainly possible someone suffers a big enough GAS attack. 🙂

Here's a link to the seller's most recent attempt to sell the whole package:

Well, I was wrong; the seller got a bidder! So it looks like it will sell after all.
