I have decided to sell my 500mm f4 lens principally because, with the march of time it is getting more difficult for me to carry it around. It is in excellent condition and the image stabilisation is working perfectly. It is currently advertised on Birdforum.net where you can see photographs of it and a few typical images. I can provide higher resolution images for anybody interested. I would prefer to sell locally to save the hassle of arranging delivery for such a bulky item and it would be easy for a local buyer to inspect. It comes complete with the original substantial flight case.
Looking for £3900 or best offer. Please PM if interested.
I wish I had a spare £4k lying around but sadly the mrs would leave me if I bought this. Good luck.
