[SOLD] FS: Sigma EX70-200/2.8

Ishpuini · 01-21-2008, 04:09 AM

Hello all,

I'm finally ready to sell my Sigma EX70-200/2.8. Though a great piece of glass, the DA*50-135/2.8 is much more to my liking and for the really long reach, the FA*300/4.5 is just better (with the Tamron 1.4x converter compared to the Sigma with the Sigma EX 2x converter)... Bottom line... there's no real reason to hang onto it and I can use the money...

Most important, my copy has glass in excellent condition. It is the last pre-DG version (minimum focus distance 1.8m). AF is among the fastest of my lenses, probably because it has internal focus. Zooming is also internal. Note that the zoom ring is slightly less smooth around 135mm. The hood shows slight signs of wear as I always used it as protection. It comes with a very sturdy tripod clamp and its original bag and caps.

I am asking EUR 650 for the lens. This is excluding shipping costs. I accept Paypal and will ship to Europe and most of the English speaking world. Other destinations please check with me.

Wim

Two images taken with it in Zambia:

EDIT: I just realized that these were with the Sigma EX 2x Teleconverter attached. Couldn't find images on-line that I took with the 70-200 alone...

Haven't got pictures of the actual lens yet. Don't have the time to make them today, possibly Wednesday...
