Default Just picked up a good craigslist find!

Sigma 35 f1.4 ( HSM, older lens) for $250 and i lookek up what keh would give me for it in bargain condition and it’s worth $320 to them. So i figured no loss.

glass is perfect and functions as it should. The barrel is all beat up i imagine from someone who may have worn rings. And about 1/3 of the filter thread ring is broken off, cap still holds on and hood still locks on.. The filter thing i can fix for $65 if i wanted to. But i think i am just gonna use this as a beater walk around lens.

Nice find. I have shot Sigma many times over the years (including that lens) and you will be happy with the quality.

got a couple of test shots (my standard models were used)... these are unedited seems to shoot a little on the "cool" side of colors but the quality and sharpness are pretty good!
