Not that I NEED a lens this big but it sure would have some serious bragging rights. It is used though. My question is..if you had the coin to buy it in the first place why would you be selling it. That thing would need a turret to hold it up:confused:


I now have a gear list too:
350D, kit lens, nifty fifty, Sigma 28-70, 70-300 macro (thanks supergoat) now a BG-E3 as well:D

Doh! Sorry. My bad..that'll teach me to post something like this prematurely. First time I'd seen a lens of that magnitude before. Going to hang my newbie head in shame now.
