As I'm in the market for another VS 100-300 (again) I've started to check actual offers on Ebay worldwide.
My special interest is how many of the currently offered lenses do have the well known haze in the rear element and what serials are affected. Here's what I've found:
It seems, that serials beginning with 750*** are less affected than lower numbers.
I'd like to expand that table with more samples, so feel free to send me your lens's serial (as PM for not disturbing this thread).
Most of yours will be without haze of course, but with a larger data basis we could possibly find some rules which lenses to avoid.
I'll continue monitoring ebay for new offers of this lens and add them to the list, too.
If you see a lens offered anywhere else than Ebay, please send me a PM so I can add it to the list.
Above listing will be updated regularly.
Thanks.
