This is a beautiful, well-maintained Canon EF 500mm f/4.0L IS USM lens with lens hood and protective case. The offer includes a bonus Really Right Stuff quick release plate for Arca Swiss- type tripod heads ($55.00 value). I purchased this quality optic for wildlife photography, and it has been my go-to lens for years. Now with an f/4.0 aperture, the 500mm f/4 IS provides AF with any EOS body even when used with the EF 1.4x extender. Weather-resistant construction, excellent durability, superb AF speed and optical quality combine with Canon's Image Stabilization for incredible imaging potential. • Flourite & UD elements eliminate secondary spectrum chromatic aberration • Full-time manual focus override • AF Stop function shuts off autofocus when an obstruction appears • Dust & moisture resistance made exceptional by magnesium alloy lens barrel and new rear gasket at lens mount • Two-stage image stabilization; dual-axis camera shake correction or vertical axis only(for panning) • 3-stage focus limiter • Focus preset function allows for returning to a specifically set focus by turning a ring in front of the focus ring This lens represents a big investment, so I will try to give you all the information you will need to make an intelligent bid. Age and Usage: The date code on the lens is U00706. This is confusing to me because the second figure represents the year of manufacture and is supposed to be a letter and not a number. Perhaps it is meant to be the letter O, which would indicate a manufacturing date of 2000. I know that I purchased the lens new in November, 2000. The serial number is 21501. I lugged it to the national parks two or three times a year on average, so the overall usage has been fairly light. Lens: The lens is in excellent condition and produces bright, sharp images. The glass is clean and spotless overall, but if I look closely I can see a tiny pin prick on the front lens. I challenge you to find it, and it should not affect picture quality in any way. Autofocus and image stabilization work as advertised. I have never used the focus preset function, but assume it works properly. Cosmetics: The lens barrel and lens hood are in excellent shape. There are no dents or dings. There are a few tiny marks on the paint, and I have included a close-up picture where you might be able to see the two largest marks. What is included: EF 500mm f/4.0L IS USM lens Canon ET lens hood Canon lens case 500 Front lens/ lens hood cover Lens cap Owner manual Quick release plate Shipping and payment instructions: I only accept orders within the USA, so PLEASE do not bid from outside the United States. Packing, insurance and shipping will be expensive for this big lens. Please add $125.00 for shipping and insurance for shipments within the “lower 48” states; add $150.00 for shipments to Alaska or Hawaii. If my actual UPS cost is less I will refund the difference via PayPal. I only accept PayPal (with verified or confirmed addresses). This is an expensive item, so please email me with any questions to help make a good decision. Good luck.

The lens shows no sign of wear, everything works perfectly on my Nikon D700 and D300 camera bodies. This is a very sharp 3rd party telephoto lens.

Shipping for this item is avaliable internationally, but please be aware that 1. This item is VERY HEAVY - it is 20 lbs without any packing material. Heavy items cost more to ship. 2.

If you're looking for a superb performer but don't want to shell out big $$$ for AF-S versions, go for this one, you won't be disappointed! Reason for selling: ... hard decidion for me.... this used to be my #1 lens for wildlife photography until my ageing back told me it's time to "lighten the load".

Below is a few sample shots taken by me with this lens mounted on D2x camera, with and without TC's (TC-14E, TC-17E, TC-301). Some even handheld (my back oftn reminds me about these shots)
