kinda mad because I was planning on selling my 11-16 soon. also the suggested price is $1000 for the new one, but it will probably be a lot less than that.

Haha seriously. With the focus ring just a hair back from infinity, literally everything is in focus past 1m.

Hopefully this increases the amount of 11-16's they sell, super hard lens to find.
