The forum works in self service mode :) Reading and browsing helps a lot.

Latest price in the thread is jul 2010. And the current price is still around the same region. 900+
 

TS, exercise your fingers and call CP, TK Foto and SLR Revo to find out the price. TK and SLRR are located at Funan and CP at Peninsular next block.
 

Also note than the older non-vc version is sharper than the vc version.

That is a sensitive topic. Different people come up with different results and different conclusions.

I am happy with non-vc though.
 

Thanks all for the many advices. I've gotten the lens alr
 

Instead of creating a new thread, I'm reviving this.
Just got my HKG coll to get me the VC lens for S$615 and will be collecting today.

Anyway, I know that there are lots of talk on the reliability issues of this lens and as a newbie, I need help to check if there's any problem with my lens.
Yes, I could do a "search" and it will throw up lots of threads which will be quite time-consuming. While I am looking at them, if you have offer any quick guidance, that will be much appreciated. Thank you.

You can do a focus test.

Thank you, dd123! I did some trial shots and it looks good. Will do the focus test this week if time permits.
