[SOLD] Sigma 24-60mm f/2.8 EX DG -- Like New

PentaxForums.com Marketplace Listing

Item for Sale
Sigma 24-60mm f/2.8 EX DG -- Like New

Asking Price
$185

Item Description
I got this Sigma 24-60mm 'cause I wanted a constant f/2.8 zoom in this range... I wanted a wider wide end than 24mm, but this is a lens I could afford. I recently found an 18-50/2.8 Sigma EX on ebay for a good price, so I'm replacing this with that (and it may go too if I order a *16-50 - when will it end???)

So, anyway, what you get...
  • Like new lens - I've used this lens for a little over a month and nothing unusual has happened to it. It is in new condition as far as I can tell.
  • Original everything: caps (front is the new front-pinch style so you can put it on and off with the hood on), hood, foam padded case, papers / manual etc.

Just want to say I have this lens, and it's excellent. It has all the quality of a 2.8 prime with the convenience of a 28-60 zoom (excellent portrait focal lengths on a cropped sensor). It has much better IQ than the Pentax FA-28/2.8 which I also own.

Cheers!

Wow...

I can also vouch for the performance of this lens. I trust it as I would my DA*50-135. They are very close in performance and IQ. It's a steal at that price...

If I didn't have the Sigma 28-70 f/2.8 ex dg I would have bought it. Hell I would have swapped head to head if I had the chance to do so.

I feel sorry to see that sort of lens to go for so little money.

Now that I have a 21mm ltd coming, I'm very tempted to sell my Sigma 20-40mm and buy this one.
