I am now vested in full frame and have three lenses to sell that I used on my Nikon DX cameras. These will be good acquisitions for someone as I have always kept a lens cap on the barrel when not getting the shot--so no scratches on the glass--and I keep desiccants in the camera bag. Also, I don't change lens in the field. My equipment is carefully handled and used for only a few weeks a year when I go on my photography trips.
(DX) Tamron DiII SP AF 17-50mm f/2.8 XR LD IF in original box with caps and hood. This lens is NEW. I impulsively went to full-frame just after purchasing this lens and never used it. This is a fast, very sharp lens and would be ideal for landscapes or portraits. $275.00.
(FX) Nikkor AF-S 70-300mm f/4.5-5.6G ED VR (the good one) with caps, hood, and soft case. Serial #2129576. Purchased from NikonUSA as refurbished. Very lightly used. EXCELLENT condition. $325.00 $250.00.
(DX) Nikkor AF-S 18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II in original box with caps, hood, and soft case. Serial #US46083569. This lens has been my workhorse and the hundreds of images taken with DX cameras that I have shared here on UHH were taken with this lens. It does have some lens creep but it is easily remedied with a wide stretch band. (Of note, the VR II has the barrel lock.) Some very fine dust visible on the inside ledge behind the front glass but that is common and has no affect on the images. GOOD condition. $300.00 $200.00.
I do not do PayPal and will accept a personal check subject to clearing before shipment or will ship immediately with a bank cashier's check. Please feel free to check the positive feedback on my profile page.
May I ask if you stayed with Nikon and which one if so. By chance if you purchased the 750 there's a way that you can use those lenses. I saved all mine as well as the 7000 and 7100 which I take along as a second ,but will sometimes mount one on my 750 and just change the setting to dx in the menu. I find that a shot taken with the 750 with the dx 17-50 is superior to the one with the 7100 =17-50. Lot better retention of color.

That never occurred to me. I primarily use my 24 mm f/1.8 prime on the D750, but also have the 24-85 mm. The 17-50 mm would become 25.5-75 mm wouldn't it? Sharp as the Tamron is, it would duplicate what I already have, but DX would produce less resolution than using the 24-85 mm for full frame. Still, a good thought, tusketwedge. My goal is to travel as light as I can on the air flights, so only 2 lenses will go with me. I have had so little use for the 70-300 mm in my landscapes that I won't be adding that weight to my camera bag on the planes either. The 'friendly skies' aren't so friendly anymore.
have interest in your 18-200 please call me or text 954 646 0209 so we can set up details, Robert McMahon 954-646-0209
Based on the market indicators after a bit of time has passed, I have reduced the prices on the two Nikon lenses.
