So you can try that lens sold in Spain mentioned by Antonio. Definetely EUR 55 is much cheaper than GBP 69 especially with the weaken of Euro nowadays

Speaking of the Elmo 1.1 lense, I have had several over the years, both the original silver/aluminum and the black barrel varieties. Maybe its just me, but the black 1.1 seemed to be sharper than the silver, even though they all had very good to excellent condition glass. I'm assuming the silver lense is the older version as it is pictured in the accessory section of the older ST1200 manuals. Once I got a nice Elmo 1.0 I knew I wouldn't go back to a 1.1; but if I ever did I would only want the black one.
