This is simply the best sports lens money can buy. Although it shows some signs of use (bit of rubbing etc.), this is the sharpest lens I’ve ever used – out of the 600L, 500L, 300L and 135L. The IS and excellent balance means that I can actually hand-hold this lens although I find a monopod or tripod more useful.
The lens date code is UR0110 and it’s an EU model. It comes with a grey flight case (for the old 400 but it still fits nicely) and a fantastic rain cover from the Canon Professional Service (CPS). It’s registered with the CPS and had a service at the last Wimbeldon tournament. If you’re looking for a substantially cheaper option over the Wimberley Head, I can also provide it.
I’m in no rush to get rid of this lens so no low-ball offers please. I’m in Dublin and potential buyers are welcome to try before they buy.
