Sigma 50-500mm DG APO OS HSM 4.5-6.3 for Canon

Started using my new Sigma 150-600mm Sport and I am comfortable parting with this Optically Stabilized "Bigma". Very good to excellent shape with Zeikos 95mm UV filter, caps and shade. The mounting bracket looks very worn (moved from another lens), a spritz of flat black spray paint will fix that up. This had been my favorite for sports and wildlife until the 150-600mm. $1100 shipping and insurance included in CONUS (Priority 2 day). No longer have the carry case. I will ship as soon as I have received a money order or certified check or when a personal check clears.

You are looking at the 150-500 not the 50-500.

...and used on B&H for ~1149 without a UV filter...I thought 1100 was fair.

My apologies. The 50-500 is MUCH more expensive. $1500+ for new at Adoprama.

The other thing you have to realize with this lens is that there are two versions. The newer one is the 4.5-6.3 with a 95mm lens and has OS. The older version is 4-6.3 with an 86mm lens and no OS. So be sure you are comparing apples to apples.
