Tired SRE
I'm posting this from work, I'll post up some photos later this week.
This is the older, non-IS version.
I have all the caps, the hood, the case, tripod collar and probably even the original box.
Nothing particularly special about this, if you know Canon's SLR lenses you know this is a good one.
I used it extensively for shooting low light sports and action stuff when I worked freelance just shy of a decade ago. (Football, Soccer, Ballet and Hockey)
It does a lot of things really well, especially on a FF camera or when paired with a 1.4x extender.
I'm posting it up for sale because it's probably the last real shiny piece of photography gear I have left, I pull it out less than once a year and I need the cash for a move. (My poor bag looks empty with only the 70-200, 50 1.8 and a EX580 along with my old 30D now)
Since I'm not using it.. it's just more stuff. I might say the same about a nice BM tripod but I think CorticalStack would kill me if I sold that because she likes borrowing it. Where as she'll only be a little sad if I sell this lens.
If I've not sold it by the time August ends I might consider trades for things that go boom. New old hobbies.
Condition? Fantastic
Lens is built to last and tough to boot but I've always been nice to my gear.
Price: $1300ish seems about right for the current market but I'll entertain reasonable offers.
Now to figure out where else to put ads for this.. might have to dig up my FM login..
