Yeah, no fang, but a good deal. $540 including shipping out of OZ. I'd
call it mint-; you really have to look to seesigns of use. Included
49-72 adapter/hood with 72mm UV filter, sturdy, slightly beat-up generic
cap and a nice after market case that holds it with the 'hood' on. Also
came with the Original Oly slip on cap which is useless (like the
original case, which I didn't get in this deal) except for resale. With
the protruding front element, there is no way I would run around with it
on a camera without the 'hood'. Even with the 'hood' on, it's quite
small and light.
I picked up a Nikon case, with hood included, for their 18/f3.5,
thinking I might use it. It's huge! The inner diameter of the hood is
larger than the outside diameter of the Oly 49-72 adapter/hood. It's
easy to forget what an amazing job Oly did of taking the size and weight
out of the OM cameras and lenses without compromising quality.

Oh, I sent some links about the Tamron that I found when I looked into
it. I failed to mention I bought a zuiko 18/3.5.
