Check out TCW , but the price is quite ridiculous .....around $600.

One on ebay.

thanks for the links. is $600 a ludicrous price for it? how much should it be?

 

[Agetan]

I sold one recently to a CSer for $330 without hood...

I guess its a bargain!!... hehee..

Ah well.. just helping my friend getting rid of his lens... NO, I don't have one at the moment.

Hart

*peng* that's like half the price!

hmmm, gotta scout for a used one then...

the one i got from hart was $350, no hood. but it's the non-D version (not important lah hehe). managed to find the original hood for $15 ;p

er... you can try alex photo, there was a 100-300 apo D there (still in box!) in the window a few wks ago. also got 100 2.8 macro... dunno if anyone already took them...

My 100-400 APO cost $690 a few years back... why shouldn't the 100-300 (D) APO cost $600?

It's pretty cheap by 2nd hand lens standards... the lens was new... there were no marks even on the lens mount...
