some pics - sorry not the best quality shots.
I definitely have the box but it's in the suitcase that has all the boxes (!), if you insist I am happy to take pictures of it, from memory the box is in mind condition.

Funding a long glass, so selling this one - owned it from new, bought from Warehouse express (WEX) on 26/05/2011 - UV filter since day one.
Very very little use, so in perfect condition, boxed with all original caps and pouch.

Sigma 50-150mm APO f2.8 HSM II
Serial No. : 1013935

Asking for £400 including delivery. Paypal or bank transfer or cash on collection. I will ship to most of Europe. (and can also have a price in euros since I have a German paypal account too)

I will be in London next week so very happy for you to come have a look, inspect and test it.

I will put some pictures up very soon - I can also send pictures taken with that lens.

I have another 2.5 months but will need a second body, a 18-135 WR, and either the Sigma 120-400 or 150-500mm.

happy to trade against some of my lenses -

thanks

hello,
thanks for all your comments.
i dont expect to shoot that much, and i always delete blurry/missed shots straight in the camera.
1 pic is usually around 15Mb, i am guessing it will take 3-4 weeks to fill one 16Gb card. So will leave with 3 cards.
Firedrive looks great - it has 50Gb free storage, I will probably use that, and be patient when i have wifi connection.
thanks a lot - (and feel free to add more tips)

hello,
I am hoping to go travelling for a few months, and will obviously take some pics
One dilemma I have is how to store the pics, I could buy 2-3 32Gb cards, I am sure I wouldn't fill them in, but more nervous about getting robbed and losing everything.
I've read a few forums online and people recommend having a notebook and/external drive. Since i'll go backpacking it doesn't work for me.
The two options I see:

a) get some 32Gb cards, find a way to duplicate them and hide one in my backpack, and the other one somewhere else
b) spend an hour once a week in an internet cafe and upload the files to dropbox (or similar service), which means I would have to pay a suscription
c) would shipping a SD card via DHL to Europe be a good idea?!

Any tips/advice?
thanks

ok thanks - after reading reviews I think i might lean towards the OS HSM version or the 150-500. This is for a safari so no tripod possible and it seems very tricky to get sharp shots handheld.

thanks - I will let you know if things change
