there are various comments that the bellows/slide attachment is a better bet than the usual slide copier, since there is no cropping of a full frame image.
If you only have a few photos to scan, it might be better to have them scanned by Peak Imaging or a similar reputable firm. The cost per photo might be high, but probably less than the slide attachment and less hassle.

I think the sponsorship has been well publicised - here and elsewhere. I have no problem with it - it is in the open and you can take it as you see it.

Ok… I have taken a small considered risk and bought the 21mm f/3.2. Thanks for the 'heads up' SMC!
I feel the same way about sellers who can't string sentences together and have poor spelling etc. but this seller has got respectable/acceptable feedback, plus the fact that I want to try this lens out for myself and the fact that my finger started getting itchy when it hovered over the 'BIN' button.
I will keep this thread updated with any future joy/sorrow that results from this (slightly) impetuous purchase

I agree - some caution and a little research needed ; )

Caveat emptor, do your own research, no connection to seller, but someone on the forum might be interested :

I have the Vivitar version of this lens. Pretty good for the price (about £30 on the auction site). It works on film and digital and works pretty well - some vignetting to be expected, and fall off in the corners, but not bad at all.
