Been waiting to get one of these for ages. The other night i was in luck, found this on Talk Photography.

That is all

Ryan^p · 30th September 2009, 16:36

Don loves his.

Pisses on the shitty sigma 18-50 i can tell without even using it lol

Viper · 30th September 2009, 16:43

it always seems to be a very popular lens. not heard a bad thing about them other than the noisy focus, which i really dont care about.

Jungle_Jim^m · 30th September 2009, 18:19

how much did that bad boy set you back buddy

Viper · 30th September 2009, 18:32

i got it for £280 posted

which aint too bad i dont think

jaybiss · 30th September 2009, 18:43

get a pic of it out the bix bitch tits

Viper · 30th September 2009, 18:49

pic was taken with it...

ill get a pic of it now for you piss flaps

Jungle_Jim^m · 30th September 2009, 18:55

i am assuming its new not second hand, £280 seems pretty good if its new. if its second hand then you can get new ones of ebay fot £250 posted but they are from HK

Viper · 30th September 2009, 19:03

its second hand but hardly been touched.

and theres not a chance im getting from ebay. lol

i looked on cameraprice buster, and there was a new one for around this price but ive never heard of the place before so again, not going to trust it.

I would much rather get something in 100% condition who has feedback

Jungle_Jim^m · 30th September 2009, 19:30

yup fair play its not like a massive saving for the risk any way.

i want one of these but i want my 70-200mm f4 first lots of savin to do lol

Jungle_Jim^m · 1st October 2009, 01:09

i love my canon 70-200mm F4 epic lens you dont realise how much difference good glass makes, i compared some of my BMCRC pics with my dads (he was using a kit 90-300mm) and f4 is much sharper, has better clarity and has much better AF

Viper · 1st October 2009, 14:26

i would love to have a 70-200 as well. lol

but theres no way i can justify it as long as i have the 100-400.

Start shooting in low light over the winter and see if you feel the same.

A grand? O yeah forgot you wont buy new

£1500 last time I checked isnt cool! espec as mine needs to go off as its got to soft for my liking.

Viper · 1st October 2009, 20:39

yeh, i wont buy new because i like to keep my money.

how much is calibrating it going to cost you?

have you dropped it or is it just shit

Lenses can just generally go soft with alot of use.

Dont know yet not asked, waiting till i/my sis have sorted CPS membership ooot

Viper · 1st October 2009, 20:58

let me know when you find out. might be worth sending the 400 off for piece of mind if it isnt too extortionate

It will be a different price I get as CPS should be cheaper.
