I got the hook on an almost NIB one for $125.00 from a guy local.
Got any tips, advice or good gouge on the lens?
TIA

That's a decent price for an E+ lens. Just take care with it since it has a plastic bayonet mount.

It's very light and very sharp. Autofocus is decently fast as well. It's one of my go to lenses since it's so light.

It's OK. vignettes pretty badly when zoomed in.

nice shots. I have the same lens. It also vignettes when zoomed but could that be attributed to filter stacking. I like shooting sunsets but I also notice when I do I get sun spots. I have been told the spots as well as vignetting are from the stacking. I dont think it is as annoying as a finger in the frame. And I NEVER EVER find a finger in my shots.

Here's what I've got. Note dark corners

Couple of mine...
The lens is full of sand because a dust storm kicked up at the end of that game, but still no effect on photos.
[ETA] Whoops, the predator was taken with a 70-300. Disregard.
