It's belated recognition that not many people buy prime lenses any more, and that 50mm is not "standard" on digital. So, without the economies of scale that come from huge sales, the dear old 50mm needs to carry a higher price.

That price is mad while other dealers are still selling it for around £200.
But perhaps it is a sign of the future value. I might eventually sell mine and use a MF f1.7 instead.

Well, I was thinking about how I justify a 10 - 20mm Sigma, now I have an option.

If so I wish I had bought a load of them when I got mine at £145!
