In some ways this is getting ridiculous but in other ways it is a good thing.

Great budget lens in the 1970s for my Praktica LTL SLR, if one did not mind a pre set non auto lens when even the Vivtar 28mm and Asanuma 28mm and Hanimex 28mm and Spirotone 28mm and a zillion other cheapo 3rd tier Japanese made wide angle lenses had auto diaphragm stop-down.

I paid 30 dollars in the 1970s for my used copy of the Hugo Meyer Lydith 30mm lens, but the kickstart price these days is 749 USD.
