Hi All,

For sale a near new (bought ~3-4months ago from Rainers in Brisbane) a Canon 85mm F1.8 eos lens (e.g. suits all xxxD, xxD and full frame xD cameras).

The lens is in excellent condition and comes with box, caps and instruction sheet.

This is regarded as one of the best portrait lenses available, is super fast and produces very pleasing bokeh. I haven't used it for Astro work, but with it's fast speed (it is sharp wide open too) and 85mm FL would be ideal for mid-widefield milky way and larger galaxy shots (e.g. LMC and Andromeda etc). Quite compact and lightweight considering too!

Hardly used. I am mainly into landscape photography these days and the FL is rarely needed.

Retail ~$650, I'm selling for $495 registered post within Australia. NOTE, post only, no pickups, sorry. I'll accept either PAYPAL or direct deposit into my bank account. FIRST TO PM THEY'LL TAKE IT, GET'S IT.

Photos attached.

If I had more money, I'd consider it, but sadly, saving for a car is on goal right now. Good luck with the sale - this is a fine lens - very sharp, makes an excellent portrait lens.

If no-one takes it in the next few days I'll have to withdraw it and put it on e-bay.
