WTB: Nikon 50mm and Rod System for Letus Extreme

[jrod81]

I think the title says it all, but I am wanting to get a 50mm Nikon lens for my new Letus Extreme. Also, if anyone is selling a rod/rail system for the Letus please let me know. I need both items as soon as possible. Might be quicker to email me at futurelossatyahoo.com
thanks

I would go to www.keh.com for the lens. I bought a good quality 50 1.4 for $75.00 and the rails, go here http://www.indifocus.com/products_indirailspro.htm they are only $99 brand new and they work great. I have been using them for a couple of years without issue.

thanks a ton for the help

anyone have a nikon 50mm 1.4 for sale???

buy the 50mm 1.8

you'll save a hundred+ dollars and i personally believe it works great!

 

[jrod81]

hundred+... the 1.4 are selling on ebay for $50-$75... what am I missing? thanks for the heads up, sorry that I am not following...
oh, is that for the auto focus maybe? i was just going to get the manual focus?

Would that rails system work with a XH-A1 and a SGblade?
The indieRailsProXV looks great with the 18" length and the 2" riser.

Get a Nikkor 50mm F1.8 - it's sharper in the usable apertures (f2+) than the f1.4 and you'll save money. I got an E series lens for less than $50. They're everywhere and they're cheap.
