From your talk I should have bit the bullet and then resell it
Maybe could by that 17-70mm sooner.

Just noticed the feedback on the NEW lens seller 94.1% seems dodgy and might be in China not the UK plus his photographs have dissapeared.

He lists Pentax lenses as well also the Sigma 100-300mm f/4 for £711 normally over £1,000 link looks like another scam

The 2nd one does state EOS didn't spot that at first, so it can't be used on digital.

Sorry Scott, I don't use Canon and I had a brainfart I was thinking it was the early mechanical mount which is FD not EOS. They did bring out Film EOS cameras which is what's throwing me. EOS is the current mount, so it should fit OK. Nice bargain for a Canon user

It does state: Corresponding AF Mounts :Sigma, Canon, Nikon, Pentax, Konica-Minolta

Wouldn't risk anything off him though. Reading his feedback is the best laugh I've had in years I can't believe people have given him good feedback even when they've been ripped off This is an example of positive feedback:

Item despatched promptly, a shame this is copies only and not originals!

And a Neutral from someone who wanted to collect a Boxed DVD Set:

i thought i was getting the boxed set (genuine version) not some copied DVDs
