For Sale: Sigma 18-250 HSM OS f/3.5-6.3 Nikon Mount

PhotoXopher · 02-03-2010, 12:21 PM

As most of you have seen, this lens is an awesome copy and I've had no problems shooting everything from around the house shots of my kids to wildlife and landscapes.

But alas, I no longer need this lens and would love to see it find a good home.

Price is $450 shipped, PayPal accepted if you pay the 3% or use the gift method.

Comes with lens, front and rear lens covers and lens hood. This WILL auto focus on the Nikon bodies without a focus motor since it has the built in motor in the lens (HSM). Focus is very fast and quiet and also has optical stabilization (OS) that works very well.

I've had two different Nikon 18-200's and honestly prefer this one over them.

Ships USPS Priority Mail the next day!

Did I mention the bokeh?

Hope you get it sold. I'm tempted to get it just because it's nice to slap on and go around for the day, but then I remember I really want the nikon 14-24 and need to really start saving for it. GL with getting her gone. It shouldn't take too long.

Thanks TJ!

I'll bump it for you again...

This isn't the greatest place to sell camera gear, is it?

PhotoXopher · 02-15-2010, 08:07 AM

Thanks Patrick!

I had a nibble last week, hoping it pans out - I'd like to see a member here get this lens instead of some unknown person on eBay.

Ummm, anyone else?

Captain IK · 02-21-2010, 02:11 PM

I'm interested, but I've never wavered from Nikkor before. I understand many Sigma lenses are as good and I see you would agree. ANything about Sigma I should know first?
How old is the lens?

PhotoXopher · 02-21-2010, 02:44 PM

This lens is less than a year old and quite honestly an extremely excellent copy. I've been nothing short of amazed by it on a regular basis.

The optical stabilization works great, focus is very fast and accurate and the internal focus motor is nice and quiet.

Bump

iAstonish · 02-25-2010, 01:24 PM

Free bump. This is a great lens, I use the same one.

View my flickr for some additional pictures by this lens.

Thanks!

I checked out your photos, nice work. Seriously, if anyone is looking at the Nikon 18-200 do yourself (and your wallet) a favor.
