Item Description
Sigma 18-300 mm f/3.5-6.3 Contemporary zoom for Pentax. Excellent (near mint) condition inside and out. Ships with original hood, original caps, box and paperwork.

I bought this lens in the summer of 2016 specifically for travel. It's a great lens in many respects. You can see what I wrote about it back in 2017 using this link. You can also read the complete review right here on Pentax forums:

Sigma 18-300mm F3.5-F6.3 Contemporary Review - Introduction | PentaxForums.com Reviews

The best thing about this lens, outside of its incredible range, is the near-silent focusing. On my camera bodies, which are quite old in relative terms (K-5 and K-30), AF works very good in most situations with relatively strong lighting. Even in somewhat dim light, it's still pretty reliable in terms of AF until it's racked out to maximum FL.

So, if I like it so much, why am I selling it? Everything in my world associated with travel has changed (not just due to the pandemic). I'm just not using it enough to justify keeping it. I think someone else will put it to better use.

Please PM me for a quote on shipping. Since everything is a little bit weird right now, I would rather give you a specific shipping cost direct to your door.
