This lens is pristine with only a few cosmetic marks on the lens hood. Ultra sharp and clean.
Will ship to anywhere in the US . . . (Canada could be a few $$$ more for extra cost of shipping)

$1,390.00 USD . . . NOW $1290.00 usd

OMG how much does that thing weigh? I'll stick with my 18-250 Sigma for my Canon T7I and be happy. Before I scrolled the pictures I could not believe the $1390! Guess something THAT big/heavy would cost a lot!

One of the big differences is that this lens is F/2.8 throughout the entire zoom range. What F/stop is the Sigma at 250mm?

F/stop? F/2.8? I just leave it in auto and forget that stuff.

No wonder you use that Sigma!

I have this Canon lens in the II version. It is the last lens I would give up. Outstanding images.

Illininitt, I just checked, that 18-250 Sigma is f/3.5-6.3. That pretty much says it all. Don’t waste your time buying the Canon, you would not know what to do with it. 😁. Why don’t you just use your phone?

An unnecessary comment.

Which is kinda why you make such ignorant comments.

Yep, it’s TRULY irritating when someone who has no intention of buying makes a critical comment about your for sale post. Trolling at it’s worst and a pet peeve of mine.

I paid $2,500 for mine brand new. I'm so glad that you are happy with the lens you have, you don't know what you are missing. It's not the size and weight but the quality of what's inside that makes it one of the finest lenses that Canon has ever made. Look it up and you will see that $1,390 is a very reasonable price.
