    Canon EF 24-85 F3.5-4.5 USM.

    Comes with the hood and a Hoya HMC Skylight 1B filter (67mm). Original box, manual, etc.

    Superb lens, particularly in the wide-angle range. Stopped down it can rival primes for resolution. My best ever shot was taken with this lens:

    Superbly compact and light, ultra-fast, silent AF. No zoom creep. A few signs of wear on the hood, but the glass is unmarked (filter has been on since the lens was new).

    Reason for sale: Along with the change in camera bodies, I've decided to do some reorganisation of wide-angle glass. See also thread for 20mm F2.8 USM also for sale.

    £175

    What about eBay Isaac? I was thinking about the 20mm to go with me 350D but the sensore size would mean that it works out as a 32mm lens - am I correct?

    Correct - it's 32mm FOV equivalent. I've used it that way a great deal with my D30 (pretty much as the standard lens, because I always found myself more comfortable with ~35mm fov than 50mm). It will go on ebay if I can't find buyers through forums.
