I'm thinking about selling this lens to upgrade to the 2.8 version. Lens is in great condition and has had a filter on it every time i've used it. Looking to get around $625 for it. Let me know if you want to see more pictures of the lens.

Why do people ask so much money for there stuff? You can buy a BRAND NEW one, yes a BRAND NEW one, for $599 from B&H. Like seriously, look online at prices and price accordingly.

Whoops pretty dumb. OP what makes you think you need to upgrade? I've had both and rather prefer the 4 because it's smaller, lighter, and the image is extremely comparable. Maybe look at the 4 version with IS?
