Well I have been after a Canon 24-105 L Lens for a while, and they have been around the £350 mark lowest, I know there are a lot around as they came out as a kit lens on the Canon 5D MK III a few years ago.
So I will let you know that yesterday I bid on, and won a lens on eBay from a charity shop, I know am I mad or what ??? Nice write up " Unsure if works, can be used for parts" Ho Hum, well here we go on our little adventure.
This morning I paid and asked the seller to cover the front lens in a soft cloth prior to posting, it does come with a soft case, but no front lens cover "eek". Delivery expected this Monday 24th.
You may say I am a fool, but the way I look at it, is that the charity is getting a good donation, I can afford it, the kids have long left home, I know charity's have been struggling during lock down, and I MAY be getting an immaculate, sharp lens. LOL.
They probably do not know if it works, as they have no camera to test it on, and may have no idea how to even zoom out the lens, but it does not look too bad in the pictures.
So will wait until Monday,
thanks George.
