With Canon Australia announcing the
24-70mm f/2.8L II USM for release in April 2012 I was wondering if an owner of the earlier series might be planning to upgrade and wanting to sell it.
Internet prices for new ones (earlier series) are $1,240 and up so I would not be willing to pay more than $950 for a good one. I am not too fussed about scratches or faded surfaces but it must have good optics and mechanicals.
I plan to buy one of the internet ones in two weeks if no one responds.
Regards,
Pieter
