I preorder it with a HK dealer from ebay last month. It is not from our local shop.

I wonder if it's their strategy to only ship out the lenses at such long interval with such small quantities. If it is, they might suffer in the end when more people bail out and rather use L lenses with adapter than waiting.

Also, since CZ 85mm (A mount version) is also pretty stellar... It could be an option to explore.

Cosina simply doesnt have the power to produce enough lenses...
