Last year’s Werner Camano - $189
The Camano is actually a bit lighter than the Shuna: 31 ounces at 220cm.
Last year’s model is now on sale at Rutabaga for $189.

Though lacking the micro-adjustable ferrule, it can be set for non-feathered or a standard 60-degree feather.
I love mine.
Epic
I tried both the carbon and fiberglass Epic and like the fact I can have 45 degree feather instead of 60. But as far as the adjustable length as a “multi-gear” paddle goes, I’m not so sure… The shaft of the Epics are so very smooth I had trouble taking the paddle apart with my wet hands. Having a mild case of “tennis elbow” on my right hand doesn’t help the matter either.
More over, it’s quite easy to loss the screw-in locking peice when the paddle was stored or transported in the take-apart mode.

Buyer’s Remorse
I’d have buyers remorse too, if I paid $3750.00 for a new paddle. You tacked on one zero too many!
