Joe, the 100mm f3.5 lens takes 34mm filters? Did you say you had some spares?

 

[back alley]

[FrankS]

Okay, $81 total and there was NOT a lens attached to the hood...

Can't get a series V hood?

A Canon lens MUST have the correct lens shade!

Joe. I understand you too. I topped out my bid at 61 USD, and decided not to pursue it further!

only victor understands me 🙂

 

[back alley]

We must keep track of each other's ebay IDs. 😀

For the record, Joe bid first. I was going to bid, $35 maybe, this item was way over my head obviously.
