Mentioned this one in the Lens Lore forum. I picked this one up in Park Cameras Showroom at the weekend. They have more stock 'out back' - 2 if I remember rightly), the boxes have the a55 compatible sticker on them (and it works fine on mya55) and its 150 GBP off RRP. Scott

That's just one secondhand lens LCE Chester has - not gone from their web listing, but I guess you have got it!

I thought it was "used" but on talking to them "NEW" special offer, if you want one I would grab one quick before they all go at that price David, I was rather surprised at those prices. regards richard

It appears they just got one at that price. Quite odd. I suspect they made a mistake actually.

Must register with Sigma for the 3 year warranty
