[SOLD] Sigma 24-60mm f/2.8 EX DG AF (Pentax)

PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing

Item for Sale
Sigma 24-60mm f/2.8 EX DG AF (Pentax) - REDUCED PRICE

Item Description
This lens is pretty much new as I only used it for a couple of days around the house after it arrived (new) before stumbling upon a great deal on the Sigma 18-50mm Macro, and I do not need both. It really is as sharp as they say. M.O. of PayPal OK. If using PayPal the lens cost is $200. Shipping in the US included (USPS).

All PMs have been answered. Lens still available. To answer some of the questions, the lens is located in Arizona, just west of Phoenix. I have not done any formal testing with this lens but from the family pics I took with it at home I did not see any focus issues.

Not that I know of. Hmm, $200 vs $199... OK, how about $200 shipped in CONUS. The warranty card has not been filled out. The lens is like new.

I use this lens often. It is very sharp, you will be surprised. It is unknown as many go for the 24-70 instead. For the price you will be very please. My impression is that Sigma has stopped producing it because of the competition with 24-70. Many stores have reduce the price to remove it from their inventory, discontinue item reaction. I have compared photo taken at 50mm f3.2 with Pentax FA 50mm and sharpness is equivalent, I was floored by the results. Mine is not for sale!
