[Greg Haag]

In case someone has been thinking about the GF 35-70, I just got an email and CI has it on sale for $499.95. I really enjoy this lens and it seems like a lot for the money.

Thanks, Greg, I feel the same way. It's an insane price for a very useful lens. Fuji continues their aggressiveness with a new promotion on some of their most desired products, including GFX 100s and many lenses, even the fast 80mm/110mm lenses.

When I see that lens being offered by Fuji for $500, I can't stop thinking that Fuji should hire the guy who did the Crazy Eddie ads from the 1970's: "the prices are INSANE!!!!!!!!"

I would agree. Though I always caution when comparing single lens copies to beware of sweeping conclusions (not that Lloyd is making any). At 3x the price, it would be worth it. At the current price, I can't imagine why any Fuji owner wouldn't have one in their bag. With regard to stock availability, he observes that the 35-70 lenses are out of stock, but we do have them on our shelf.

Thanks for the heads up. I already have the 32~64 lens, so this would be redundant, albeit smaller and lighter. I did purchase the 50 mm lens when it was on sale for $500. That lens was also redundant, but I could not resist the small size and lighter weight. Great walk around lens.
