Under http://cgi.ebay.de/FUJICA-GL-690-PR...ryZ15241QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem a novice ebayer (history of 1; even there is a negative feedback) lists a GL690 (GL !!!) with a 65 mm + 50mm lens but with no picture and no details apart from claiming mint condition.-)
He offers a Buy it now feature for 300 Euro / 420 USD
Those of you who speak spanish and are brave enough to dive into an adventure might appreciate this opportunity.
I do not claim this is a worthwhile opportunity nor do I have any commercial interest in this auction.

This morning another 50mm 5.6 lens for the G690 was sold on Ebay.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dl...arch.dll?from=R40&satitle=7594340281%09&fvi=1
The successful bidder bought a G690 beginning of February 2006 and now has the 50mm too.

Walter, you must know better, but I have the feeling that prices of theses lenses are going steadily up, which is rather surprising these days that everybody seems to be chasing after digital gear.
Besides, I think I will have second thoughts each time I go out doing street shots with my kit.
Keep watching!
Regards and good shooting,

Film is the other way
After reading this thread, I'm trying to figure out if someone actually has a 50mm. If they do could you put up a couple of shots with it and say a 65mm or 100mm for comparison's sake?I'm trying to figure out if there is a significant difference between a 50 & 65 mm on a 6x9 image.

Hi Jan,
I just uploaded some pictures on my webpage for the purpose of comparing the results between 50, 65 and 100 mm lenses. ***Here*** is the link.

Hi Abbazz, thanks for the link and hard work. I'm surprised at the difference in FoV between the three lenses. Much greater than I anticipated. The move from 65 to 50 was more significant than I thought.
the info is much appreciated.

You are very welcome, Jan.
The difference between 50 and 65mm is not so surprising when you consider the equivalent focal lengths for 35mm: a 21mm lens gives you a much wider picture than a 28mm...
