Desperately seeking... a genuine Eiki 38mm/1.5" lens... I've gone through a couple off-brand 38mm lenses (inside an Eiki adapter sleeve) already and have had disappointing results with all of them. Now I want to put an end to this by getting the "real deal."

Must be 38mm... I'm not interested in any 25mm/1" lenses... if you have one or know who does, please reply here or PM me... Thanks.

I have an excellent one in mint condition, but before I sell it, I'd like to obtain the 25mm equivalent. If I succeed, I'll let you know and see if you're still looking for a 38.

Thanks Adrian. [Smile]

I'm actually having second thoughts now... still, do let me know if you're ready to make an offer. [Smile]

Jan,

Is this the lens you're looking for?

BEAUTIFUL!! [Eek!]

I didn't know Kowa made this lens... it is absolutely gorgeous, with its all-metal shine...

Am going to pass it up, though - money is tight, I got a cheap Sankor 38mm lens that works OK (had to put it in an Eiki sleeve first), and I'm going to phase out my 16mm stuff anyway...

...but thanks for the link! [Smile]
