Hi Bob, Well spotted, that was my old A*135/1.8, it was sold not long after I bought my APO Lanthar 125. I bought my *Ist D direct from the importers on a US price match deal but it still cost me about AU$2150 as I recall, they were shafting us badly back then, I don't think that they had heard of the Internet but I had.
