• Selling my extra Canon EOS 300X (film) camera, and my Tamron 90mm f2.8 Caon EOS-fit lens.

    Canon EOS 300X - £50

    Tamron 90mm f2.8 (Canon EOS-fit) - £200 (will consider all offers)
    [This is NOT the Di (digital) model. But is fully compatible with all EOS functions, like E-TTL II.]


    Apologies for awful Blackberry produced image.

    I know there are (EOS 300X) cameras for sale on eBay at £40, but mine has only been used ONCE. Seriously. It is therefore in perfect/mint condition. Also, there can't be any worries about tracking me down later, if one had any queries after the sale.

    The Tamron 90mm f2.8 lens is a supreme prime lens, for portraits, and for macro. Its reputation for this particular model, could not be higher.

    The reason I'm selling these? Because I am going back to my roots, with little to no automation in my cameras.

    These are the camera specs:

  • Way over-priced for the body. I picked one up for £10, exactly the same.

  • Used only once? If that was so, then it would indeed be exactly the same.
    But I do appreciate the feedback, so thank you all the same.
