I have a like-new, Tamron 28-75 in pristine condition for sale. The lens has seen very little usage since I purchased a 24-105L shortly thereafter. I probably used it no more than three or four times before I bought the 24-105L. Since then, its been spending all its time stored in a Pelican case. I'd rather see it put to good use that to lay around unused. Did I mention that its very, very sharp?

Asking $285.00 which includes shipping and Paypal to CONUS. Price includes lens and all accessories...two lens caps, hood, and original packaging. PM or email if interested. Thanks.

You might want to ask the admins to move this to the Canon section of this forum

If you're interested in the lens, I can email pics. But really, the pics of the lens would be no different than what you'd see on the B&H website. I'm anal about my equipment, which is why its stored in a pressure-sealed Pelican case. If you need pictures taken with the lens, I'll have to shoot a few. Like I said, its been barely used and I probably don't have pictures handy.

Snapped a few off:

1.) 28mm/F2.8

Images were shot in jpeg, then re-sized. Outdoor shots were in overcast weather. I didn't realize until afterwards that the flash head was rotated a bit to the right, which is the reason for the shadow on the left side of the Windex bottle. As you can tell, the lens is very sharp as its reputed to be. Hope these pics help.

Lol. I thought you were pumping your own fuel or something :rofl...

Eitherway, I am VERY interested in this lens. I will double check with the wife tonight.

Last questions:

1.- when was it purchased?
2.- is this also a Low Dispersion (LD) lens?
3.- do you have feedback somewhere? :) can't find anything here on dgrin
