M Mr_Sukebe Suspended / Banned Messages 393 Edit My Images Yes 31 Jan 2009 #2 It's a no-brainer as a lens, but £60 seems high for a s/h unit, particularly so when Kerso is selling them for not much more brand new.

Matt T Suspended / Banned Messages 205 Edit My Images No 31 Jan 2009 #3 Im sure Kerso had them for £45 new a while ago when prices were cheaper. I would say £60 is too much, but its a great lens for the money.

OP J jimmy83 Suspended / Banned Messages 2,154 Name James Edit My Images Yes 31 Jan 2009 #7 Ah ive brought gear of his ebay shop before
OP J jimmy83 Suspended / Banned Messages 2,154 Name James Edit My Images Yes 31 Jan 2009 #8 Hmmm, 75 quid with P&P Did he used to sell them at 45?
O oli Suspended / Banned Messages 553 Edit My Images No 31 Jan 2009 #9 lens is £73 from jessops. £65 plus £10 p&p on that ebay site, so I think - £60 if it looks as good as new is a good price. I recently have been watching 3 on ebay and all second hand units went for £62/65 plus p&p

Matt T Suspended / Banned Messages 205 Edit My Images No 31 Jan 2009 #10 Im sure it was less than £50, although that was a while ago when the £ was alot stronger. He will do it cheaper outside of ebay.

O oli Suspended / Banned Messages 553 Edit My Images No 31 Jan 2009 #14 shallow depth of field shots - its a pretty good lens for the money. Tempted to look at the 1.4 because of it!
