Let's try another $100 reduction in asking price. Lens is *almost* "as
new". Upon very close inspection, I noticed a hairline scratch on the
rear of the tripod foot so I can no longer honestly call it
just-out-of-the-box pristine. My guess is this was made by the Kirk
ARCA plate that had been installed on the lens. This is the only
blemish and it's too faint to even photograph. Glass, diaphragm
action, focusing, cosmetics, etc. are truly "as new". Comes with caps,
case, box. I am the original owner and haven't had this lens out of
the house more than a handful of times. $3150 including
shipping/insurance anywhere in lower 48.  Lens lives just north of New
York City and in-person pickup would be fine. It's big, it's heavy,
and I'm shooting mostly digital these days so I'd like to find it a
good home where it will be used. Photos of the lens are available on
request.
