Bought last year. Don't use it enough.

Cheap lens but can produce very sharp results. Great value. Fast lens.

Comes with lens, caps, and the original box.

Price is $80 firm.

You may be able to find a cheaper copy on craigslist or wherever but I assure you I have a sharp copy that hasn't been abused.

email me if your interested.

daniel.druet (at) kwantlen.net

You can pick it up in S. Surrey.

Thanks.

I think what he means by cheaper copy is that there are plenty of 50 1.8 IIs for sale for less than the 100 bucks he's asking. (though it's a fair price, that's what I was asking and got when I sold my 50 1.8 II)

What he's saying about the sharp copy is that his takes crisp images. In my experience, most 50 1.8 IIs take great images and I've found very litle fluctuation in IQ from copy to copy. Hope this helps

B4N - exactly what I meant. Thanks.

Here is an 80 page thread of shots taken with the same lens.

Sold to me!

Thanks Kite! I've been testing it at home on my cats and I'm very happy with it. Can't go wrong with the price. This lens is more than I expected!

Not yet. Money is tight until I begin working in May. After that, who knows.

Niforpix: Have fun with it!
