Yup, You guys read right! It's the famed Canon 50mm f/1.0 L. This Canon 50mm f/1.0 has a 'UE' date code, meaning that it was manufactured in 1990. Very vintage and for a lens this old there are ABSOLUTELY no damage on the either the body or lens. It was very well taken care off, I was told that I am the second owner when I purchased this lens a year ago from another photographer.

This lens was last sold on eBay for $3,000. eBay link

Now for the pictures of the lens....

If you're a lens collector or if you really need that extra stop then I am asking for $2700 or your best offer.

Would like to see a picture of the rear element too. Also, does it come with all accessories or just the lens, or what? Thanks.

I think more candid pictures of the lady in red wouldn't hurt this sale

Wish I can afford this...

Here's some no light photos I took last night with the 50mm f/1.0. In addition, I saw my first Aurora Borealis last night as well, very impressive.

Back up tripod....

Aurora Borealis

Homer, Alaska (This was pitch black when I took it)
