Well on Thursday night I was just browsing ebay when I saw her. There was a "Beast" staring back at me, UK seller with good feedback and a mint example. Bargain price of £399 :eek: On impulse I hit the BIN button and I'm this morning the very proud owner of a new looking Beast :D

It's a UK model and everything so I think I got a bit of a deal there...

Looks like the Sigma 24-70 will have to find a new home, although now I have a gap from 20-28mm so I might have to keep my eye out for a 20-35 :bonk: It never ends....

Hell of a price that - well spotted! Known as "The Beast" as it weighs 2lbs :eek:
I tried one but couldn't afford the weighlifting course to use it properly :embarrassed:

Yeah it is a heavy one, must be all that quality glass. Can't wait to get time to try it out properly :)
