How much is a new CV 50mm Nokton?

chgoh · 9th January 2006

Like the title says, how much is one in SGD and where can one be bought in Singapore?

I'm not sure where in Singapore you can get one ... but I got it from B&H for about S$680 (including shipping). Is that expensive? And I suppose you are referring to this lens right?

Yes, this is the lens. 680 seems high.

I bought mine last time for $750.

The price seems to have dropped then.

Is the price inclusive of the M adaptor and shipping from HK? If not, what is the price of the adaptor? I guess one would still have to figure in the TT/money transfer fee charged by the agent banks.

Wondering if any one here has a used one to let go.

The price is not inclusive of the LTM adaptor and a new Voigtlander adapter is about $70 SGD. Dr. Yao prefers Demand Draft in HKD and the admistrative charges is $10 for DBS and POSB. Much cheaper than TT or Western Union.

I almost to add, the 50mm/1.5 Nokton is a very sharp lens and works very well with colour and slides! I am using mind as an available light portrait.

OT abit .... any chance of using this lens on a Canon EOS? Is there an adaptor for this, if it exist?

sabrewolf · 24th January 2006

nope, you cannot use this lens on SLR
