Just picked it up, seems like a good copy. First impression is that it gave me mini Otus 28 vibes (high bite) and beautiful bokeh.
The price at Kitamura and most other chains was 115,000 JPY or about $777 USD tax free.
Gonna upload unedited preview size standard color profile JPGs here, let me know if anyone wants specific type of sample shots
All shots below is with included hood and Kenko ZXII UV filter. I noticed no difference with the UV filter on or off. Doing some more research I see Kenko has a Celeste line which is supposed to retain higher edge contrast fidelity but will keep the ZXII on for the rest of the shots since these are only low resolution preview JPGs and handheld.
