Given the value of this lens, I am certainly open to some wiggle room on the pricing
Includes:
Lenscoat x 2 - both digital camo and white versions
Jobu replacement foot (as well as the original foot)
Case, manual, leather end cap, Canon strap - everything that came with it originally

There is one small scratch in the paint near the lens mount as pictured. There are also two *very* minor scratches near the end of the lens as pictured. There is also a very slight bend in the rubber on the lens as shown. There is absolutely no affect on functionality. I have kept a Lenscoat on it since purchase. I also gaffer taped the hood, so that the rubber wouldn’t get knicked from standing it up on end.
I would be quite open to a local meetup and deal in the GTA/Hamilton or surrounding areas. I am not at all opposed to shipping assuming you cover it and use an insured method. I reserve the right to limit sales to those with a track record of positive deals here on FM.
For payment, I would most prefer a certified/cashier’s cheque, although for Canadians an EMT is even more ideal. Paypal is also an option, however the fees are significant on an item of this value.

After a fantastic 4 year run, I have moved laterally to the 600 II (mostly given changes in my shooting preferences) and am selling my beloved 800.
I can’t say enough good things about this lens. It put me on the map as a nature photographer, is incredibly sharp and much more portable than the 600 IS MkI that I came from. IS is fantastic and has allowed me to obtain shots I wouldn't have dreamt of before. This is truly the bird photographer’s dream lens.
