Hi All,

Due to an accident at work and now having a shoulder prob, I want to downgrade to the 500mm f4 IS, as I'm finding the 600 a bit of a struggle. If anyone has a mint 500mm and a bit of cash to put in as well and wants to upgrade to a 600mm please get in touch.

Regards

Rob

Should have said open to sensible offers for the 600mm, its in mint condition, glass is flawless and has a realtree cover on all of it, also hard case

Hi John,

Had one of them about 3 years ago, weight is going to be an issue I'm afraid, seem to remember it being as heavy as my 600mm :wink:

Heavier by 1/2 an oz I think.

I know of two for sale at the moment and one of the boys is looking for either a 6 or 800.
