Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 like new / mint

Like new perfect condition Rokinon 85mm f/1.4 lens

this is one of the best manual focus buys for portrait or just overall photography work and is a heck of a deal for the images it produces

I have only used it once on a family photo session (30 minutes) and I loved it

the lens has never been wet / in harsh conditions and is like new

comes with a hood and original box / packaging

I have decided to let it go in order to buy a 16-45 zoom which will better fit my everyday needs

I would happily trade for that as well or any landscape lens (sigma 17-35) or others? worth the same used

Paypal only

$210 for the lens

$15 gets it shipped usps priority insured

returns allowed if not as described, more photos available upon request

just did

I really love this lens but I also own a FA-50 f/1.4 and one has to go for something I can shoot more landscapes and cityscapes with since that right now is the bulk of my photography

if anyone wanted the MIJ SMC FA-50 f/1.4 with caps I'd also consider reasonable offers - but that one would be more difficult to get out of my bag

I too have the Rokinon-branded version of this beauty. I really like using it, manual focus and all. For what it's worth here's a link to some shots I've taken on both digital (K-x) and film (ZX-5) bodies with this lens.

paypal protects the buyer a lot more than the seller.

You are not obligated to use PayPal. The rules state for international sales over $100, you must use some payment service like PayPal. That would include Amazon Pay and a half dozen other payment services out there.

Maybe your missing the point? A potential buyer expressed he may be worried about buying something from the states and I just wanted to reassure that PayPal looks out for them.

Now if I send my lens overseas and they receive it and open a claim that I never sent it or it was lost then I'm stuck for a month trying to get reimbursed for my insurance claim and since it's international I may not ever receive anything at all.


If it's my feedback that's in question I had to cancel a sell because I have a shoot coming up and I can't risk not having a new camera in time. So I canceled one of my orders.

I'm not missing the point. I was pointing out that if you don't like the way PayPal operates, you don't have to use them. Lots of people see the rules that state you have to use a payment service like PayPal for certain trans actions and get the mistaken notion it's the only one allowed. As I pointed out, that is not the case.
