I really want to get a new E-1 while one can still be had, but I'm a little low on spare funds now. I also plan on getting the Sigma 50-500 down the road so I figure I'd sell the 50-200mm. I purchased it new from Adorama on 8-30-05 and has truly had VERY little use. Original box, instructions, caps, hood, etc included (ballhead, arca swiss foot & flash bracket are not). I thought I'd give the folks here first dibbs before listing it on eBay.

Here's a link to my ebay feedback if you want to check me out. http://feedback.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=macornothing&ssPageName=STRK:ME:UFS

I'll provide anyone interested more photos, but this is the only one I had access to while I'm at work.

A much sought after lens for sure and certainly on my wish list but since I picked up my E1 and 14-54 lens last month looks like I'll have to keep wishing for awhile. bump for a beauty of a lens.

since you already have the 11-22 I would think the combo with the 50-200 would be most ideal and selling the 14-54 would still help you get that E1. Anyways best of luck in your sale.

btw, you'll love the E1, get it while the remaining brandnew stock are still available.

I've been thinking of getting a 50-200. If you're interested, I have an almost new E-1 (2 mos old and never registered) that I am willing to swap for the lens. I also have a 50mm f2 lens that I could throw in, if you're interested or I could throw in a 40-150.

The few that have been on eBay in the last week or two have gone for $650-725, so I figure on $625 (=about $650 less ebay fees) + shipping of buyers choice.

since you already have the 11-22 I would think the combo with the 50-200 would be most ideal and selling the 14-54 would still help you get that E1.

My 14-54 is less than a month old plus I'd say 95% of my photography occurs between 84-28.3 degrees (24-85 35mm equiv). My standard lens is the 11-22 then go to the 14-54 when I want a little more reach. Plus I have several Nikon telephotos that can extend my reach if needed.

I had my heart set on a new one, but man you are certainly sweetening the pot with the 50 f2. Although that doesn't seem like a fair deal for you if the 50 macro is in decent shape at all. Why are you wanting to sell it if you just bought the E-1?

Hi,

I just purchased a new E-1 for delivery next week. I am interested to suppliment it with a 50-200 but I would like to know if it is still available for sale. I live in Canada but I usually have items shipped to a MN address. I only live 30 miles from the border.
