I believe that the lens the OP is referring to is the non-stabilized version that was made many, many years ago. That is why he is seeing them for only 2,500 pounds. . Sony RX10 iv

Choderboy I like a long knob More info | May 14, 2017 04:49 | #5 That seems to be a good deal. I was curious to check TDP: It shows the V2 lens significantly better at f4 but at f5.6 the V1 is much closer. Dave

Gave it a miss as suspicion was too much and the fact that the lens was located in Ireland didn't help as I'm not too sure whether that falls within Paypal's surety remit or not. So I may have missed out however I haven't been fleeced either. I can recall a similar eBay item some time ago where the seller, after I had contacted him, told me his Paypal account was temporarily closed for technical reasons so could I please transfer the money directly. Yeah right. This particular seller has another 600mm f4L IS but I've gone off the idea now. Sony RX10 iv
