Item for Sale
Sigma 105/2.8 and Hotshoe adapter FG

Asking Price
Various $

Item Location
AZ

Item Description
K-mount Sigma 105/2.8 EX DG Macro. - $160 shipped
This has long been unused and I don't see myself using it anytime soon either. Shows minor signs of use. Comes with the hood, generic front cap and original rear cap. I can't find the pouch but I will definitely have this packaged really neat. No focus problems for either MF and AF.
Caveat - Both front and rear glass has fungus (and dust specks) as seen in the pictures and contacts may need to be cleaned due to aperture reading sometimes fail. Sending this for CLA should fix both.

Hotshoe adapter FG - $20 shipped

Did you take these out in the rain?? How did it get fungus in back and rear like that?

chiepapi · 02-27-2010, 06:35 PM

No. This is the only lens I haven't taken out of the house nor my makeshfit dry cabinet for the past 6 months. It was still clear when I last used it so I honestly don't know what caused this.

If it's the only lens you haven't taken out....

JETninja · 02-27-2010, 09:34 PM

Any idea what a cleaning of that would run? Weird it happened in AZ at that.....

yyyzzz · 02-27-2010, 09:46 PM

this is a great lens, a rarity from sigma. I doubt if most hobbyists would be able to see any differences. I would buy if I do not have one.

It is indeed surprising to see fungus on such a new lens, especially one from AZ.

@ Jet - Quote from CRIS in Chandler, AZ says it will cost around $148.

@ yyyzzz - agree. I would have had this CLA'd instead if I intend to use it in the near future.

@ yyyzzz and Jet - my point exactly. Humidity here reaches only 40 RH tops.
