Yeh so true ..... ohh yeh - if anyone gives u chocolate send it my way :)
He he... if I GET it I'll eat it... I'm just saying I can do without it and I'd rather they spend their money on something more important to me! BUT I can ALWAYS eat chocolate!
I won an e-bay auction for a Zeiss 75mm f/1.5 Biotar. It's in M42 screw mount so I should be able to use it with the adapter I already have for my Peleng fisheye. The price was right if it's in the condition it looks. It's an uncommon lens, even more so in M42 mount (most were made in Exakta mount) and it is very well thought of, even for Zeiss glass. Oh, and did I mention fast?
Nice lens! Congrats. I'm in with Santa so he already brought my new D-70 w/ Nikon kit lens, a Tamron AF28-300mm F3.5/6.3 XR Di LD Aspherical (IF) Macro lens, and all the other goodies! Yahoo! Hey, don't you just love all the acronyms attached to the title of that lens. : )
I was, but I decided I'd better put a few bux aside for the new baby we're expecting in February.
Fantastic news. I am absolutely thrilled for you. The very best to your and yours during the festive season. May the coming year be filled with health, wealth and good fortune.

I've got some bad news....
Looking at the photos on the auction, it looks like there's a huge hole down the middle of the lens. It'll let too much light in. :-).
Cheers, Me.
edit: forgot: No more new toys for Xmas, got the camera a wee while ago. Maybe a lens in the new year, but will have to finance it if I do, and I'm not keen on that option...
I bought myself an Xbox.. 7 assorted games for it, a new sound-card for my computer (SBLive! 24bit 5.1/6.1/7.1), a new hoodie, and a bag of white cheddar popcorn.
