p.1 #1preparing to sell the equipment - help taking photos
Hi - I am in the process of selling my Lenses and reviewing some of the pictures of the lenses posted here- it is clear that they were able to open up the lens so that the potential buyers can get a good look of the glass - how do I do that ?

If you're using Canon EF lenses, put the lens on the camera, set the aperture to what you want, depress the DOF preview, and dismount the lens while the DOF preview button is still depressed. The aperture will stay open, at the setting you selected on the camera.

Just understand that any competent scammer can con you by using a different photo of the same lens taken from somewhere else. Or they can clone out any defects showing on the lens they are selling.

I rely on a seller's feedback, not on their photos of the gear. Diligent buyers will rely more on my feedback than my photos. Click on the seller's 'PROFILE' button to get to their feedback.
