I ordered the chrome version as I already have the CV 35mm Ultron in black but wow the black paint version looks beautiful. almost tempted me to switch my order

Isn't it "mid-December" now? I am just making sure that I have not missed any deadlines for ordering and sending payment.

Hi raid, you haven’t miss anything. You are on the early buying list. No worries. I am now catching a flight flying to China. Will update more information later.

Cheers,
Kevin

This is good to know, Kevin. Thanks.

 

[KEVIN-XU 愛 forever]

Put me on the list as well.
Preference: Brass, Black paint, chrome. MC version. Possibly engraving too.

I am sorry. It’s too late to reserve the first batch 8-element replica. We now stop receiving orders. Please wait for the next batch.

Kevin

Looks like it’s getting close! The lens and its packaging looks fantastic. The finder and hood are also highly anticipated to complete options. aside from an M, I’m thinking about use on one of the 101 anniversary Bessa Ts.

Good idea, JIm. I had forgotten about my Bessa T 101 Anniversary camera. A dark blue camera with a brass lens .... WOW!

The black paint version looks a little dull/anodized to me. Glad I ordered the brass!

........perfect match for older M2/3/4 black paint: 😱 ......rather than the shiny MP, MP-6 models
