SOLD!!!: Sigma 17-70mm F2.8-4.5 Macro for Canon and 72mm filter set

Robert_T · #1 25-10-2008, 10:09 PM

This lens is about 6 months old and in perfect condition. I've attached a range of photos taken with the lens to demo its capability.

Considered a significant upgrade over the standard Canon Kit lens or even the 17-85IS lens it is an excellent walk-around lens for any of the crop sensor Canon Camera's 300D, 350D, 400D, 450D, 10, 20, 30, 40 or 50D.

The macro capability on this lens is as close to a true macro as you can get without buying a dedicated macro lens.

I'll be sorry to see this go, but I've invested in a 24-105L and will be upgrading to a full frame camera soon, so it has to go.

For the lens I'm asking $350AU postage included within Australia (paypal or direct bank deposit only)- sorry no pickups.

I also have a few filters in the 72mm thread size to go with this.

1 x Hoya Pro1 UV filter
1 x Hoya Pro1 Circular Polariser
1 x no brand graduated density filter

The Hoya Pro filters are very high quality with low profile frames to prevent vignetting when going wide.

For the filter set I will sell the three for $125 as a separate package, or for $100 with the lens.

please PM your interest

Is this an EF or EF-S lens?

Robin, it's an EF-s lens, I can vouch for the quality and excellent Macro capabilities of the Sigma 17-70 Sigma.

PM sent for the lens and filters.

Actually I can't send the PM, you need to clear some message box space Robert, but here's what I tried to send:

Hi Robert,
I'll take these - $450 all up inc postage, is that correct?

Not interested in haggling, I'll pay the price you ask, it seems fair.
Let me know where to transfer the money!
