Considering letting go of one of the most glorious lenses ever made, with looks you can't get anywhere. I adore it but I am looking to get another lens I need more. But while the adult brain says it's responsible to sell, the photography nerd brain wants to keep it, so I'm not interested in selling for less, take it or leave it please. I just bought it in December, it's as new, I installed the rubber cover ring they provide instead of the foot collar, looks super slick and handles great. All packaging, accessories etc are all as new. Pick up in Livermore or possibly during the work day, in Mountain View at the main Google campus. Free shipping in CONUS, if using Paypal G&S add 3%.
