Bone Juliet!

Why do they become 'paler' with age?

My understanding is that the surface finish deteriorates with time due to the older "inferior" coating technique. It's only the early X-metal plasmas that do this apparently. Now they're pretty desirable.

Sure, it makes sense. I thought it might be an oxidation depending on location or something.

Aged like fine wine though. Better with age

Why do they become 'paler' with age?

sooo easy..........

And I have the same understanding, @cacatman. Seriously cool pickup, those lenses are outstanding too!

..damned lucky Aussies..
