A few images of the lens as promised (better late than never)
As you can see the rubber grip has the typical Sigma fading - this looks worse on the photos than in the flesh

I should add that this includes both the APS-C lens hood and the Full-Frame lens hood

You can never have too many 85mm Primes
Well actually you can - I've currently got 3 hence the sale of this beauty

As a lens addict seriously afflicted with LBA I wholeheartedly concur.
However, in addition to the Samyang, as I already have:-
Takumar 85mm f1.8
Takumar 85mm f1.9
Jupter 85mm f2
Carl Zeiss Biometer 80mm f2.8
Roeschiein-Kreuznack Telenar 90mm f3.8
Pancolar 80mm f1.8
I reckon I've sufficient to be going on with for a little while. Don't you think:
But! Never say never. Addiction knows no bounds.

Phew.
By the way, which Biometar do you have? Is it a silver M42 one?

Hello HarisF1. It's a black one for my Pentacon 6 camera with a native Pentacon mount plus an M42 mount adapter. A lovely lens it is too.

Good morning LennyBloke, Sigma 85 delivered to me at 0845 today. Lens exactly as described and well packaged, unfortunately weather awful today, hopefully better tomorrow. No doubt some pics will appear here in the future, thanks again for an easy transaction. Kindest of regards John.

I'm sure you'll have some great use out of it - it's a top quality lens (and I'm not generally the biggest Sigma fan), up there with the best portrait lenses. Pleasure to deal with you John

It is in superb condition and includes the original hood, caps, case and box. The optics are in great condition, minimal dust, no hazing.
Here's a few snaps from this morning...
1. f5.0
2. f1.4
3. f2.5
4. f2.5
5. f1.6
6. f1.4 (shows the purple fringing on the highlights)
I'll add some photos of the lens when I get a chance
