The fittings are a little odd though. It has a M62 female on the end of the tube and you need a few different fittings to get different accesories on to it with and without the focal reducer.

Hey Tandum;

Ive been quoted $2267 in GST for a VC200L. What price did you pick yours up for?

I bought it 2nd hand.

HongKong pete has them listed for about HK$9K, which would be under AU$2K. http://www.tan14.com/gears.htm

Brett's after $1K on the forums here.
