We have a family get-together at the weekend, and as it will be a bit special I decided that i would bite yet another bullet and buy a 135mm f2.for the occasion. Naturally I looked for the best price - only to find that these tended to be either from people who had no stock or with whom I had problems in the past. I spoke to LCE in Southampton who, although they had no stock, would check around for me. When they called me back shortly afterwards the good news was that they had located a lens - the bad news was that it would cost £970! Apparently Canon increased lens prices at the beginning of the month and as this would be new stock, it carried the new price.
I was able to locate stock at Flash Camera who still have that lens at something in excess of £200 less than the new Canon price. The warning is - if you have been teasing yourself about a new lens, get in quick before the old stock runs out!
