Any info on converting lenses to ROM?

you're missing one :

 

(4) increased resale value ( or value retention ) on eBay

 

 

So we shall buy 3 CAM lenses, add ROM and put them back on eBay then.

 

Seriously, but it won't work ... there's still a price between the last ROM lenses and those ROM-added 3 CAM lenses, one just need to take a look at the serial number ... and some models don't even have a ROM version.

 

My humble 2 cents only ...

The cost of adding ROM is more than the increased resale value. If you add ROM to a lens, do it because it's useful. Adding ROM to increase resale value is bad economics.

 

Since I use Leicaflexes as well as R bodies ROM decreases the value to me.

...Adding ROM to increase resale value is bad economics...

Especially if new roms are launched with the R10.

I would glady give you the required info plus some advise yet i would rather like to know your real name first. it used to be a polite habbit here and at least i would like to continue it.

 

if you do not like to be found by google use @ $ or other non-letter characters.

 

cheers
