Item for Sale
Kiron 105mm 2.8 Macro ka

Asking Price
$275

Item Description
Kiron 105mm 2.8 Macro.

Highly regarded 1:1 macro lens. One of my favorites, just going from having two to just one.

Lens is in good shape. Some of the lettering around the front is flaking off (this is very typical) and there is a little dust inside (also typical) but that is the only trouble with the lens.

Well, lets bring it down to $315 and see if anyone is interested.

ah693973 · 05-17-2009, 05:17 AM

Lowered the price again.

ah693973 · 05-23-2009, 07:29 AM

Let's try another price reduction. $299 is now $275. Buyer pays shipping.

This lens is in great shape. The Kiron I am keeping has a ton more dust and wear and still gives great service.

I've got a 300mm now so I'm only interested in a sale.

This is a good price for a more than good lens. I own one and it's built like the proverbial tank, handles beautifully, and, most of all, is so sharp that it makes your eyeballs bleed. Unless I'm dying of hunger, this one stays in my bag, and even then I'd rather offer to take the sharpest picture ever of whoever will give me food. Check these out:

Ditto to all the above. Here's a link to a shot I took with this lens in its "Lester A. Dine" variation last summer ...

Now you've gone and done it - my eyeballs are bleeding!

Thanks for the photos guys. They were great, really nice.

I think if I had to sell all my lenses but one, the Kiron would still be in my bag.
