Just picked up a Nikkor 70-300AF G for $80 at the local pawn shop... :lol:
It looks to be in mint condition... 30 days to take it back if it's defective...

I suppose I didn't really need it, but I wasn't going to let anyone else have it at that price... It'll be interesting to compare it with the Sigma 70-300mm if nothing else...

I walk past and have a look every day - still waiting for the VR lenses to turn up in the window... One day!
Cheers, John

You just keep away from the pawn shops in Hornsby Leek! I have them under my surveillance :)

I've got a camera, it's black. I've got some lens, they are black as well.

I don't think there are any pawn shops in Lane Cove :lol:

At $80 for this lens you can't go wrong... And if you're not happy with it, you can certainly sell it at a profit!
