I’m meeting a gentleman tomorrow night to complete a Kijiji purchase of an Olympus 12-50/3.5-6.3, which I intend to use as an alternative “macro” to stop my wife monopolizing the O60/2.8 when we shoot together!
This chap also has a clean-looking 40-150/2.8 Pro. I asked him to bring it along so I can test it out. I don’t often need a lens of this length, since I primarily shoot with the O12-100/4 and O60/2.8, so this would be a like-to-have, rather than a need-to-have purchase.
He is asking CAD$1,400 (~US$1,075). What would be a good, but not unreasonable, price for a used 40-150/2.8 Pro? I was thinking CAD$1,100 (~US$850). I wonder what a used camera reseller would offer.
Convincing my wife of the necessity of another $1,000+ lens purchase is an entirely different challenge!
Thanks
