Hi Ben -

I'll keep an eye out on EBay - I stumbled across one at one time (Optex, 52mm no less!), interesting piece, definitely not a zoom through situation... when I sold mine there were a couple others that popped up too. They went for around $300-350, so you've got a budget to keep in mind... not bad when they were 1K new.

I don't know whether the Optex and the Century were actually different or not, when I researched it looked to me like somehow the two were related business wise... but the Optex is a solid piece of glass. Sort of superfluous for me once I went to shooting HDV, but an interesting way to increase the effective resolution of the camera.

I'll start watching for one, I always find the strangest stuff on Ebay! One might just turn up!

Hi Richard.
Thanks. They only ship to the US, but I had a reply from one seller just now. He is willing to ship to Norway, but can only accept wire transfer. I´ve only ever used paypal. Would you recommend doing a wire transfer?

I recently bought a Sachtler tripod here from a member of DVinfo. Used paypal and it worked like a dream (Thanks Laszlo). Shipped from Canada to Norway in a week.

That´s the reason I was hoping to find one here. Feels safer to buy here.

The price in Norway is exactly twice the price in the US. I would have to pay the custom fee though. Still worth it

The items I purchased from Paul were extremely well packaged, and shipped promptly.

All of the items were as described, or in even better condition.

Another very smooth transaction from a great DVInfo.net member.

I completely understand preferring to buy within 'the community' here. More like buying 'from family'.

I can't reccomend what course of action for you is best. I HATE paypal, for reasons too involved to go into here. I know I wouldn't do a wire transfer unless I had a good phone number and address for the person on the other end, for sure.

Your call. The 16x comes up now and again on this board, but not as frequently as on Ebay... so I guess it depends on your needs.

Hey Tom. That John Beale site is awesome.

Thanks again Dave!
