Tamron 200-400/5.6 ... thoughts?

->> I have a 200-400/5.6, old style, that I am considering selling.

It is old. I bought it used with my 20D in 2006 and worked fairly well for football, I don't use it much anymore, usually as a loaner to other photogs that have hardware issues or need a telephoto for a game or two.

I'm curious as to what you think it might be worth, probably selling it on here. It's got some scuffs, but the FE is in pristine condition. I've seen them go on eBay for $250-$350 but want a real world price thought. Comes with the original hood, end cap and lens cap.

Thanks!

->> Check KEH and see if they have any listed. That will give you an idea of what the retail marketvalue is.

->> I took a look and they have just the Nikon version listed; even on FleaBay they have the Nikon and Minolta ones. $250 seems like the best I might get - if the Nikon and Canon versions are similarly valued.

->> Considering you have a giant "d3" in your member icon, no, Canon EF was not obvious... :)

But mount shouldn't matter. A dog is a dog no matter what color its spots.
