The time has come for me to sell this terrific lens.

It's in excellent to mint condition, given it has been rarely used.

This is the first generation, without IS.

It's a beautiful lens and will serve you well if you've been looking around for a good copy. Auto focus is very fast and focus very sharp.

It comes in original box with all packaging and includes booklet, both lens caps and hood. Soft pouch is also included, which has never been used.

Also includes a Hoya Super Pro 1 UV filter, which retails for around $100. This was put on the lens from day one. So the front lens element is spotless.

The only reason I am parting with this is because I simply don't use it, and it's too good a piece of glass to have sitting on the shelf doing nothing.

I'm looking to sell it here first, before I go over to eBay.

Price is $1100, plus postage. We can arrange pick-up if you live in Sydney or nearby.

Thanks for looking. Questions via PM, please.
