Item for Sale
DA 55-300 F4-5.8 SOLD and SHIPPED

Asking Price
230

Item Description
This is a fine midrange/telephoto lens. It was a fine lens to use but unfortunately was the least used of my lenses since I always had my DA* lenses on my body. Exterior is in excellent shape. The lens hood does have some minor scuffs and and this wavy pattern likely due to when plastic was poured and manufactured. The lens elements them selves are scratch free and and fungus free. Unfortunately there are a few minor specs of dust in the elements but hey dont appear to do anything to image quality.(Ill post some photos taken by the lens in a bit). I purchased it March of this year before a trip to Costa Rica. It wasn't quite the birding lens I was expecting but performed very well otherwise. Overall an excellent lens but just not practical for my usage now that I am settled back into daily life!. Oh yeah forgot to mention that the pouch that it came in is included. unfortunately I dont have the box since it was lost during my move.

Its priced to sell quick and I'm sure ill kick myself for this later!

ill be shipping USPS priority mail or can arrange for local pick up in San Mateo, California
