Conurus has one available for $1299. After buying a used one, paying shipping to you, shipping to Canada, conversion and shipping back, it's going to be ~$1100-$1150. Maybe you can work a deal with Bo-ming on the pre-converted lens.
BTW - does anybody know when he'll start working on the next batch of 24-85N's? I've got one sitting here that I may get converted. I've emailed Bo-ming but haven't heard back. I don't feel like shipping it off only to see it sit in Vancouver for 4 months.
Never understood why one needs a lens cap when the cir-pol filter is on. When the lens is on the camera, the hood stays on. If the lens is stored off camera, then the polarizer is off and the cap is on. What am I missing?
1. Lazy
2. Don't use hood that much, and don't want to carry filter cases....
The fact that you are out shooting great images every weekend, if not every day, certainly disproves the "Lazy" theorey.
My Leica R 180 APO / 2.8 arrived today. I am at the unfamiliar state of mind that I feel I don't need / want any more lenses. Wonder how long that will last.....

Seriously, I have and used 3 Kaesemann Slim CPL, and I hated the caps on them....
I wish they make ones which can fit the Canon Caps....
Aren't there some slim filters (like from Hoya) that still have filter threads? (Obviously not as slim as they could be but at least normal lens caps will fit.)
Thank you. Texas is lacks historic European architecture and it's pretty darn flat, so the landscapes are pretty dull compared to mountains and oceans. So lots and lots farm equipment these days...
Thanks Charles. Several people have asked the same question, so I guess I'll write a blog entry or two. To be honest, alot of it is color editing in photoshop and just making it up along the way. I wish it could be built into a photoshop action/script, it would save alot of time.

That would be greatly appreciated. I'd definitely like to know what methods you use to achieve the look in your pictures, just get an idea of what I could work with to achieve something according to my own tastes.
