I acquired this lens NEW in April 2012, and have actually been the only owner/user. It has viewed (4) weddings, and was only made use of throughout the ceremonies. Has actually been made use of possibly a total amount of 5 hrs collectively ... which time price quote is possibly too much actually. This lens has been babied !! Much like all my various other devices - it would choose me wherever I was ... never ever before left in the automobile. Never ever exposed to the aspects. I'm just marketing it given that I have actually stopped doing wedding celebrations and do not require such a lengthy lens anymore. Would be exceptional for anybody doing sports, wildlife/nature and of course weddings/events given that it is such a fast lens. This lens is in PERFECT health condition, has no signs of wear. Front and back glass is FLAWLESS. Has had a UV filter on ONE HUNDRED % of the moment given that about 30 secs after it was unboxed. Lens determines 83/4"H x 3"W. It's quite massive, reason for all that glass!

　　Consists of. (3) 77mm filters; warming up filter, circular polarizer, UV filter and a case that will certainly hold them all. A very great cushioned lens instance with shoulder strap that it has actually been saved in. A tulip-style removable hood. I forgot to affix it when I took the pictures but, it does have the tripod mount too.
