Free lens

    Sigma UC APO 70-210mm f4-5.6 push-pull lens (MF). This is a Nikon mount lens. Tried to do this on adverts but people will just jump at something for free there, even if they have no use for it!

    Optics are perfect, body is a little worn. Focuses no problem, comes with rear cap, and 52mm UV filter up front. Missing the original front lens cap, but any 52mm cap will fit, this can be bought cheap online.

    I got this lens with a film body and I have never used it. It's just sitting around annoying me now at this stage, so I've decided to do something useful with it.

    This will be going to the person who deserves it the most, so if you want it, say why. I'd love if this went to someone who deserves it rather than stuck in a case like it has done for the last 2 years (shame on me).

    Thanks! Collection in Limerick or Cork. Can arrange postage if necessary.

    I know someone who'd love this if it's still available?

    I would jump on this because it is free but, being the moral person I am, I conclude that I basically already have a lens that fills this niche so I'll not try and claim it.

    Good of you to keep it in the family, so to speak.

    We expect a story like the man said, it doesn't even have to be a happy ending.

    If this lens is still available I would love it, I have wanted a new lens for ages but just couldn't afford it.

    I have started to equestrian event photography and my current lens just isn't doing it for me! I need one with a better zoom. I managed to get a decent body for christmas but badly need a better lens to start taking better pictures.
