There were 2 of these in a camera show last week in USA, both in screw mount.
I thought they were priced right, but they didn't sell.
I know where they are now, They are in UK.
 
Wow. This was a bargain. Is demand down?

It's still a 35mm for over a grand, not many fork over that kinda dough.

The one on ebay is kinda rough, no lock button either. I value that one around $500-$600

The two I saw were much nicer, almost collector grade.

Sorry, didn't mean to hijack this thread, keep posting pictures folks.

Beautiful image Erik.

I bought a cosmetically nice ltm off the bay this summer for $800 but when I received it it had a dozen pinhead size snowflakes of separation between the elements and the back element was heavily pitted. Needless to say I returned it. I did test it and the images looked fine but didn't want to risk issues down the road.

Nikon SP, older version Nikkor 35mm f1.8. Kodak Double X developed in Td 201.
Slghtly lower contrast than the 2005 version of this lens - but I suspect that the resolution is the same. It was a stunning lens when it came out in the late 50's - and it certainly can hold its own even today.
This is "Fantasy Row" here in Vancouver. Bentley dealer, Porsche, Aston Martin, McLaren and across the street, Lamborghini and Audi - and "Les Ami de Fromage" - best cheese store in town and purveyor of Ported Stilton for christmas. All of this in one city block!
