Drive it as a limo and/or rent it out.
One man's meat is another's poison. It is best you try it out yourself.
Scintillation said:I recently acquired a Tokina 28-70 f/2.6-2.8 Pro II lens. Though it's an old lens, its optical formula is based on the Angenieux 28-70. Great tank-like full-metal build and good optical performance for the price.

I saw a copy for sale but that is very big piece of dust or something on one of the middle elements.
Should cost around 350-400 nowadays.
My bro bought a copy before. It has a strange yellow cast over which I tot was a WB issue. Now I guess he bought a lousy copy from an irresponsible seller.
buy a nikon 24-70mm and you won't think of upgrading from there cos there nothing for you to upgrade anymore except a new release of example of 24-70 nikon vr. Humans are always going for the best at the later stage. Of cos, it my preference.
which shop will allow me to have a try of these two lens?
I got mine for $430. Was in quite a good condition.
Oh dear, sorry to hear about that! I think this is a very worthy lens if you can get a good copy.
