Hey all,

I have a Sigma 18-50 2.8 EX HSM Macro for sale. The lens is absolutely like new in the box. It is a US model purchased in late January 2009. This lens was used less than 5 times in the field outside of my apartment.

The lens itself is very sharp wide open and deadly sharp by f/4, focus is dead on, no marks on the body or glass elements. $40 Hoya UV filter on since Day 1, included in the purchase. IQ is on par with Tamron 17-50 2.8, with the Siggy edging out in autofocus speed and build. Also compared with my friends Nikkor 17-55, it is no slouch and nearly just as sharp.

Included is the the original paperwork,warranty, sales receipt, box, packaging, soft case and lens hood.

I am simply selling to finance my college tuition (books are expensive these days)

Asking $325 plus paypal fees and cost of the shipping method of your choice. Prefer check to paypal, will ship once check recieved.

Shoot me an email if you are interested: timothy.c.leung@dartmouth.edu

    WOW, very well done ad IMHO - I'm looking for one of these but unfortunately I need a cheaper/less cosmetically perfect one. I love the outside night shot.

    Good luck with the sale!
