Thanks for your input.

Regarding the specialistic lenses, the Dutch market seems to be a sellers
market, there are relatively many buyers and little suplpy. It'll be tough
bargaining. 'thou the Dutch are supposed to be good at that. :)

I checked with him, it is the auto model. He also has a pair of T28's and a
T power control for sale that have my fancy. He prefers selling it as a set
with bellows, screen 1-12 and Panagor extension tubes that I have no
interest in, as I own that already.

Let's see if we can work something out, it sure would be nice to have that
80 on my telescopic auto tube.

Cheers,
Bart
