Canon EF EOS 28mm F1.8 USM lens. Includes Canon EW-63II lens hood, a Kenko Pro1 UV filter and all original packaging/manuals. The lens still looks new and has had the UV filter on it since the day it was purchased. No scratches, chips, fungus or marks. This is a great wide angle, wide aperture lens for full-frame/35mm cameras or acts as a 50mm on a 1.6 crop sensor. This used to be my favorite lens until I bought my 24mm F1.4. Since then, this lens doesn't get much use. I would rather see this lens find a new home than sit in my camera bag. SOLD

:closed:

The lens is sold.

I've had a couple of comments regarding my asking price. Mostly people thinking that what I'm asking is too close to that of a new one. Keep in mind that the asking price also includes the hood and UV filter, and that you need to add GST on to anything that you buy in a store. Here are links to the items on The Camera Store's website so that you can see for yourself:

The Lens:

(Vistek's price is significantly higher, as to be expected. It's makes one wonder how bad prices and ever worse service help to keep a shop like that in business.):

The Hood:

The UV Filter:
http://www.thecamerastore.com/products/catalog/lens-filters-hoods/kenko-pro1-58mm-uv-filter

Lens = $632.58
Hood = $28.64
Filter = $38.95
Total before GST = 700.17
GST = $35.01
Total inc. GST = $735.18

Now take in to account my asking price of $530. That's $205.18 cheaper than the local retail price. Please also keep in mind that I will entertain reasonable offers.
