Grrrr I speak fluent typonese; that should read 'WTB'!

Ah thanks ng... that's interesting. Shame it's been buggered about with - B4 mount etc.; I was looking for a plain vanilla Canon one like this one I nearly bought:

'buggered about' ! I'd say enhanced. It is an Optex conversion with focus and Iris rings made for cinema use. The B4 mount would be attached with a universal mount - similar to a cooke zoom - so you can just get a PL to universal mount. It is tempting me...
 
The gears are nice, but otherwise I'd prefer it unmolested, with the original FD mount; the conversion is nice and very useful to the right person, but it's also raised the price to more than I really want to pay. It's one of the few really nice FD lenses still on my 'wanted' list.

Oh, I AM also in the market for a 35mm TS, at a fair price.
