On Ebay.

It seems like quite a reasonable price considering what you get.
Stop tempting me

Hi,

Sorry to bother you. Does anyone know if this is the cheapest place to buy this lens?

Lens


Thanks

Try a Google search for that vendor before making up your mind.

............I may try to convince him that as he will not sell any more 20D's, and should sell me one cheap!

Regards
K20D's were never sold cheap at the end of their production run.

I bought one of the last three that Chris @ SRS had.

He probably could have increased the price.

I have entered a picture which may be considered off-topic (but hey, I have history on that) and maybe it will encourage a wider interpretation?
alun - a very nice image but I would regard it as way off topic.

I thought it a perfectly valid entry

After all suffering is however you interpret it - it could easily be an old, well worn and battered pair of very down at heel shoes
The competition subject is suffering in the human form.

While I'm sure this is an admirable subject and may well produce a classic shot I'm afraid its not a subject that I feel happy about shooting so will be ducking out of this one.

Apologies,

Me too I am a hobbiest photographer who does this for fun. I don't have any desire to photograph suffering, and I'm not sure how I feel about amateur photographers trying to 'change the world' with these kind of photos. Sometimes it can be done right, but I fear all too often it isn't.
My thoughts as well.

Not exactly a cheery topic.

Brilliant lens

My entries in the Fortnightly Competition and the Weekly Competition that have just finished were taken with it.
