FAIR CHASE
Well-known member
Selling my Canon 500mm f/4 Mark 1 lens that I have owned for a few years. Body is in great condition (wears a neoprene Lenscoat cover and lens cover) with only minor handling marks and the glass is excellent. Includes Lenscoat and original hard case (no key). This is an absolutely fantastic lens that is sharp as a tack even when used with a 1.4x teleconverter. The Canon 500mm is the ultimate wildlife lens or sports lens when that extra long reach is needed.
It is well documented that the image quality comparing the mark 1 and mark 2 is essentially the same but a little weight was shaved with the mark 2 ($9000).
Only reason for selling is to a fund a smaller focal length (300mm f/2.8) for outdoor sports.
I have more pictures I can share with interested buyers. FTF in the Missoula area.
$3885 STYD
