Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM Autofocus Lens $879 + Free shipping (expired)

Quote from ti97 : Awesome lens. Paid this much for a used copy. Awesome portrait lens on a full frame body.

Agreed. I paid this price for my mint but used 135L too.

great lens that is often overlooked for inside sporting events. if i didn't already have one i would jump all over this.

this is an amazing lens. I was floored by the results when I tested mine

Umm.... hard to decide to sell my 100L for this one. I'll keep my 100L though.

Quote from jdramirez : Great lens... mediocre price.

Care to suggest a good price ?

Debating whether to jump on the Canon 5D MK II deal as well to supplement my Pentax K-5 setup when a full-frame is desired.

For those taxed in California, B&H Photo has the lens available for the same price with free shipping and no tax. Be sure to add one of those cashback sites.

Anybody here have any Straight Out The Camera samples? I googled some images and most look like they been photoshopped already.

Just want to see some untouched images before I decide to buy.

Thx

if you're getting a FF, might as well sell the pentax system, there's no point keeping 2 systems around... I do keep 2 system but one of them is the NEX, that suckka takes any lens, doesn't really count

What is with all of these Canon deals lately? I'll stick with my Nikon stuff.

sharpest Lens Canon produces? 879 is a bit rich for my taste. Good lens otherwise.
