For sale or trade: Sigma 120-400mm f/4.5-5.6 DG OS HSM APO Autofocus Lens for Canon

[Cory]

Selling my Sigma 120-400mm f/4.5-5.6 DG OS HSM APO Autofocus Lens (for Canon) or I am also willing to make a partial/full trade on the following items...


Canon MP-E 65mm f/2.8 1-5x Manual Focus Lens for EOS


Canon EF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM


Canon MR-14EX TTL Macro Ring Lite Flash or Canon MT-24EX Macro Twin Lite Ringlite Flash


(As you may be able to tell I've found myself having far more fun using the girlfriends 100mm 2.8 Macro USM than I have with a long zoom).


The lens has only been used a couple of times, bought new a few months ago. Perfect condition, everything that came in the box still present.

Thank you. That is not a bad deal, but out of my low price range.

[ministryofhealing]

Thanks so much, that is genuinely good of you. I am looking for a used Tokina 80-400mm f/4.5 AF Lens for Canon EOS ($550 new) and a used Sigma 150mm f2.8 APO Macro DG EX HSM for canon ($600 new). These are hard to find. There is one Tokina used on ebay for a small discount but no Sigmas. Can you help me with how to find these used? Would be a great help. My budget is so low, but I am wanting to begin a semi-pro photography career.

[ministryofhealing]

I was a little off, the sigma is around $700 new

[Cory]

Well, considering the lens I have is just sitting in my pelican case in the closet (and will continue to) if you can go to $600 and cover shipping I

[ministryofhealing]

Thank you very much for the offer and recommendation.


Actually, that canon was the other lens I was considering and am now


deciding to buy especially since I cannot find the Sigma used anymore. I


only wish it had IS and the IS version is far too expensive for me right


now. Do you know any other good macro in the $400 price range with IS/OS? I


am thinking there is not. Is IS necessary to shoot without a monopod/tripod?


Concerning your offer, it is a very nice offer indeed. I am considering it,


although it is above my price range. Would you be willing to include


shipping?
