As I mentioned in Thursday\u2019s blog entry I\u2019m helping a friend\u2019s widow sell his gear. He has several items that I think are well worth considering for anyone that is in the market for items like these,
\nthe price is reasonable for her and a good deal for interested parties, win – win. Above is a rare classic from Nikon, a 50-300 ED f 4.5 lens, this lens is big and heavy but really sharp and a classic, they are asking $650. but would entertain an offer. Below is a real steal, this is the Nikkor
\n600mm IF-ED f4 lens in absolute mint condition with a Arca Swiss plate and case. The current auto focus version of this lens goes for almost $12,000. They are asking $2,999. for this manual focus version. Once again I would entertain and offer for them. This is one of the sharpest long lenses Nikon has ever made! I just bought the little brother to it, the 400 f 3.5 manual focus and love it.<\/p>\n

I\u2019ve pictured below some of the other items they have for sale, I will say again everything I\u2019ve seen
\nfrom the estate has been pristine, Tom really took great care of his gear. If anyone is interested in any of these items contact me by email with offers. billfortney@earthlink.net<\/a>
\nThe price on each item is their asking price.<\/p>\n

If you have any interest in
\nany of these items shoot me an
\nemail with your offer and
\nshipping address, if they accept
\nit I will arrange for shipment to you and let you know where to send a check. This is one of the big advantages of shooting Nikon (sorry slipping into tech rep mode), because we never changed out F mount all these lenses and accessories still work on all our pro and semi pro SLRs. In a future
\nentry I\u2019m going to go old school and show what great work can still be done with the older manual lenses, and yes I picked up several items myself. These are good offers and they would, as I said,
\naccept offers.<\/p>\n

Have a great weekend and thanks again for your prayers.<\/p>\n
