Hi all,
At this time, I cant seem to justify keeping these 2 super tele zoom lenses, and I will keep one, and sell the other.
1. the Nikon 200-400VR is great and compact compare to the Sigma and I am able to even shoot handheld when necessary, but on a monopod is great. I have the Wimberly replacement foot for this, so the original foot is unmounted. The lens is in excellent condition - virtually no sign of wear on the barrel, glass is perfect. The carbon fiber hood has some faint marks. Comes with its original case, filter, filter case, padding, manual, sale receipt, etc. USA model.
2. The Sigma 300-800 is amazingly sharp even at 800 shot wide open, I was a non-believer until I saw the images with my own eyes. The lens is in excellent condition, the barrel is in excellent condition with a minor rub mark on the edge of the barrel, glass clean, tripod foot clean, hood is clean. glass perfect. Comes with its original case and CP drop in filter, manual.
Sigma will warranty the lens for 7 years as this lens is only introduced in the past 2 years. This is the non DG version.
if you are interested, please send me an email and we can discuss in detail.
I am located in Wash DC area, locals are welcome to inspect.
I can also take pics of the lenses if anyone is interested.
I take great care of my gear, and have lots of history on FM under username zoom2zoom
