Really tough to use the search engines for this kind of thing since the strings are so common . . .

What's a fair price for a Canon LTM 50mm f/1.4 in proper working condition with clean glass?

I've already been able to find 'reviews' that praise it. Of course, I wonder how it compares to the Summilux, fixed mount Summicrons and, of course, the beloved J8. ;)

TIA!/ScottGee1

I paid $400 for mine with a near mint Canon 7. Lens was EX cosmetically, very minor haze on surface closest to the aperture blades that I cleaned off.
 
With the purported 'Rangefinder Renaissance' going on, I'm wondering if prices for lenses, etc. are trending upward, especially since the Epson R-D1 is available.

This started with Canon EOS stuff shortly after the D30 came out. As more people get digital bodies, prices on used gear increase because of limited supply and more (a LOT more) buyers.

my two thoughts worth/ScottGee1
