Very sorry to hear about your maladies and all your items have had a wonderful 
home.  I have my beautiful bellows from you that has been used but not enough.

I just did a search on past prices on yabe for the 21 f2.  WOW!  It is just 
crazy  ------2800-6K!!!

I wonder what happened.  I bought mine from Mike Hatem and it was a decent one 
but not an uber sharp wide open copy.  At that point the Canyon wide-angle 
glass was comparatively crummy and I could see how they demanded a 
premium---$750 range then.  I think they went down in price after superb WA's 
were readily available but no clue when/why the price went into the 
stratosphere.  Can only be collectors, one assumes.  There is a list around on 
the list as to how many were made in each variation, not that I can immediately 
find it.  Anyone know where it lives? 
I have always been eyeing a 100 /f2 but not a clue what they go for.  Perhaps a 
slide copier set up that CH has used to good effect.

Mike
