Anyone have one of these mark I for sale? I've heard good things about the metal body and construction that blow the mark II out of the water.

    A pawn shop up here has one, but it's like 200$CDN... complete rip-off, considering a NEW MkII is 120$CDN.

    That being said, 2 of my MkII's burned out their autofocus motors... so maybe the better construction *is* nicer.

    I think i'm going to a get a 50mm f/1.4 instead.
