I'm going to go ahead and get this started.
What?
I have a crappy lens, manual focus and it's old. I'm willing to donate this gem to the photographic world to see what people can come up with along its travels from one person to the next.
How?
Simply decide if you're going to really give this 100% and do your part. I recommend $10 is sent to the person shipping the lens, this way there is at least some financial interest in getting the lens as well as getting rid of the lens. The $10 is to cover shipping, you'll get your $10 back when you send the item to the next person in line.
The lens should be kept for up to, but no longer than 7 days to keep it moving and interesting.
When?
Starts Right Now!
$10 to get this going, PM me if you're interested in being a part of this - it should be fun!
1. Names will be added in this post in the order they are received.
2. Once you receive the lens let me know so I can mark your name as the current holder of the lens.
3. Arrange shipping with the next person in line.
Last but not least:
The Photo Forum and it's members are not liable for anything! Should the lens be lost in shipment, broken, misplaced, forgotten, eaten by the dog, sold on eBay, buried, trashed, rolled off the roof of a car, dropped down the stairs, drowned, flushed, or otherwise ruined or gone in any way, shape or form, etc, etc, etc, the game is over unless another lens is put into action to replace it.
Note:
You will most likely need to switch your camera to Manual mode to use this lens. I am not familiar with what bodies do what, but just a note in case it doesn't seem to work for you - M mode! This is an old 70-210mm lens, I don't even know who makes it or anything else about it and I accept no responsibilty for damages. I have tested this lens on a D5000, D90 and D300s and it worked on all of those bodies.
