Am I reading this right on the B&H site? $500 for a manual focus fisheye lens? Seriously?


What, seems to high?
I think it\'s a decent deal considering that it\'s a new optical design; the current Nikon AF-D offering is about 25 years old.
Of course, you have to factor in that [according to the current folk wisdom]the Samyang lenses are generally not considered repairable---if you bash it up, you throw it away. No parts, no service. For warranty they just replace it.
