Seagull 5.6/150, 5.6/180 lenses

[vs_]

First of all - hello to everyone, this is my 1st post on APUG .

The question itself is whether anyone saw/tried/used those Seagull lenses? I've just discovered them on www.shen-hao.com and now trying to collect information on them. Would appreciate first hand experience.

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely yours,
Vladimir V. Samoilov

From what I remember China has an import tax on shutters. So those lenses aren't much if any cheaper then the Scheinders etc.

Oh... But it could be their own shutter too. Would be nice if some of Chinese APUG users query the factory for price tag

P.S. Or those, who speak Chinese, ofcourse.

According to my 2005 Shen-Hao pricelist they both cost $420 direct from SH.

So they are not really cheaper than big four a bit used, from KEH then.
