I am selling this lens because I am changing over my lenses to compact primes. I rarely shoot this wide and can only think of 2 or 3 times I used this lens since buying it new last year. The lens is in excellent condition, and I am including everything it came with.
I believe this to be a very sharp copy. Here is a detailed user review I did which includes crops and links to full-size samples taken with the copy I am selling -> http://virb.com/amin/blog/48511 . The images in that review were processed from RAW in C1 using "standard" sharpening settings.
Price reduced to $240, shipped and PayPal'd within the continental United States.
Please note the following terms and conditions:
- Buyer must be prepared to send payment right away by PayPal, no e-check
- Continental US only
- I will only ship to PayPal confirmed addresses - no exceptions
- First "I want it" in this thread gets the lens.
I have perfect feedback here, on Ebay ('asabet'), and at POTN.
Price drop to $240 (includes insured Priority Mail USPS shipping and PayPal fees). Other than some very minor wear on the bottom cap, lens is in like new condition including hood and both caps. Compared to new, you save $50, don't have to do a rebate, and get a tested, sharp copy which I have barely used.
