It’s no secret that we’ve seen camera gear sell for a lot of extra cash on the second-hand market. Unlike digital cameras, which will age almost as fast as bananas, lenses have a chance of sticking around. In fact, the Leica 35mm f1.4 Steel Rim is proof of that concept. Copies of this lens, sometimes called the King of the Bokeh, go for nearly $40,000 on eBay — and Leica is releasing a limited edition of 200 new copies of the lens for only $10,000. Pretty much anything Leica makes is a testament to that fact with the only other brands able to hold their own value being Hasselblad, Nikon, or Canon.
