Selling my Canon 50 mm f1.8 II lens as I recently upgraded. Will fit any Canon EF mount camera (Eos Rebels......5D, 1D, 7D, etc....)

Full lens review here: http://www.dpreview.com/lensreviews/canon_50_1p8_ii_c16/

Summarized; this is THE cheapest way to own a Canon lens that will shoot in low light without flash. This particular lens is known for it's sharpness albeit with less than spectacular build quality. A personal photo I've taken with this model lens (Straight RAW to jpeg conversion WITHOUT further post processing) :

EXIF Data:
Camera Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XS
Image Date: 2009-04-17 13:55:36 (no TZ)
Focal Length: 50.0mm
Aperture: f/1.8
Exposure Time: 0.0003 s (1/3200)
ISO equiv: 200
Exposure Bias: +0.67 EV
Exposure: aperture priority (semi-auto)
White Balance: Manual
Flash Fired: No (enforced)
Orientation: Normal
Color Space: sRGB

The lens has a 52 mm front thread which is a bit uncommon for Canon lenses and I have few accessories to go with it.

1 - Pearstone LHC-ES62 Lens Hood with Adapter (ES-62)
1 - Hoya 52 mm UV filter
1 - Crystal Optics 52 mm CPL filter
1 - Hoya 52 mm Infrared filter (R72) ---- *FWIW this particular lens is well regarded for IR photography

[size=150]I'd like $125 for the lens and all the items listed above. I'm fairly firm on the price as of this moment and I'd like to sell everything together, however if someone is willing to by the IR filter by itself I'll be willing to separate.... [/size]

The lens new by itself goes for about $110 and the Infrared filter is currently about $70 new just to give you an idea of what you would spend new. Add about another 50 bucks for the other 3 items....

I'm located in Farmingdale. I accept Paypal and Money Order.
