what sort of money should one expect to pay in UKP
availability?

No connection

Foto Frenzy (020 8804 8117) have one at GBP229 in EXCL condition. I would
expect to pay around 300 - 350 for a really good one. They aren't that rare
in the UK, but you may have to wait if you're choosy. Rare seems to be
difficult to judge anyway, seeing as MXV still have 4 of the 40/2s, after
years of not seeing a single one for sale anywhere.

It's REALLY heavy. but very nice if you can lift it! Has the classic quality
feel of the first zooms (was it the second or third?). I much prefer it to
the 50-250. Balances well if you hold it right (ie even when you're
handholding, support it close to the tripod ring).
