Well exactly what the title says, where is the 300mm f2.8 graveyard hidden. I am currently looking for one but I have found only one that sold quickly. If anyone knows a good place to find them it would be appreciated.

Thanks.


Liam.

Patience... Is a virtue. ;)

Keep an eye on the B&S forums; post a "WTB" thread yourself and watch the "FS" ones. One will turn up within a week or three usually.

Ok, thanks a lot but being in the UK makes a bit of an effort to get them shipped over here.

Unfortunately, both KEH and B&H require overseas customers to fax or e-mail a photocopy of both sides of their Credit Card for approval. There's no way i'd be willing to do that for obvious reasons.

Liam, keep an eye on http://www.mifsuds.com​/usedpriceindex.htm (external link) .

They get them in quite regularly.
