Only been used twice & there is a 'Skylight' filter attached (which is £50+ alone).

Looking around £300. (inc P&P)

I know... I think it being Nikon is part of the reason i still have it. :(

PS - If you know anyone who's looking one point them to me. :)

TBH i didn't use it much... :blush:

It was mainly for airshows and motorsport stuff that i bought it. I've only been to 1 airshow in 2 years (so that one is out), and i've been to quite a few motorsport events now so a nice little chat with the marshalls generally works wonders. ;) It can also be used for nature photography (but i don't do much of that at all. In fact i'd say i've taken no animal / bird photos in over 2 years!).

If i told you that it was on the camera twice (maybe 3 times max) since i got it about 2 years ago and it cost me about £700 would it tempt you? :)
