Hmm. So, yet another friend seems to want to sell me a lens. Bloody hell, universe, will you stop doing that?
This one's a "Canon Zoom Lens EF 90 - 300mm 1:4.5-5.6", one of two lenses she's planning on selling now she's moving from an EOS 3000V to something digital and non-Canon.
Is that any good for me? It looks like it'll work with my 400D, and by the sounds of it she's open to offers under a hundred quid, so it could be a fairly cheap way of getting a lot more zoom...
I think I should really head over to the Tips From The Top Floor fora to ask this sort of thing, shouldn't I?
In other news:
"...and a decaf coffee."
"Sure." She turned and shouted over her shoulder, "One Americano, hold the point."
Better to spend £100 on a lens that is what you want than £80 on one that isn't nearly as good.
