Why do you say "Winogrand" ?

That's one of the lenses he used a lot. It sure is small compared to my Zeiss 28mm f2.8. You know you are just driving up the price by announcing it here 😉

It's very compact. You rarely see them come up on ebay! But yes, Winogrand would have shot like Winogrand on any lens. As Charlie Parker sounded like Charlie Parker on any horn.
Try doing a search. This was a lens that Winogrand used a lot.

For 349 USD and 5 days to go, I'll pass on it.
It's not that rare (R5 at Peter Kitchingham's lens site); much rarer is the late black version. As with some "rare" items it can be questioned why it was sold in those small numbers although offered for more than a decade. From what I've seen it's one of the weakest CANON RF lenses. The older 28/3.5 is more common, offers better performance, is cheaper to have and even smaller.

Yes but the f3.5 lens is not the Winogrand one.

the CV 28mm is a better lens at almost half the price, but it does not have the Winogrand mojo working for it.
and you have to pay for that. 😉
