Nikon AF Nikkor 24mm f/2.8D lens for sale

nikkor 24mm f/2.8d lens nikon af-s

As mentioned previously, I have purchased a Nikkor 20mm f/1.8G lens and no longer need my 24mm f/2.8D lens. It works perfectly, includes everything (the box, receipt, warranty, instructions, etc.) that came with it new (except the front lens cap), and can be yours for $250–more than $100 less than I paid for it. Most of its 5-year warranty still remains. Recent sample images taken with it can be seen here.

Nikon D600

As mentioned previously, I have purchased a Nikon D750 and no longer need my D600. It works perfectly, includes everything that came with it new, and can be yours for $1,100–about half the price I paid for it less than two years ago and about $400 less than refurbished D610s cost. It has a brand new D610 shutter with zero actuations and a clean bill of health from Nikon.

For image samples taken with this camera (with the prior shutter but on the same sensor) click here and here.

This camera body has been sold.

Stomper @ an Oakland A’s game

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times. Such has been the A’s season. They had the best record in baseball for much of the season, but they have had nearly the worst record in baseball for the past 45 days or so. They seem to be able to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory in most of their recent contests.

But they still have hope on this final day of the season. A victory, or a loss by the Mariners, will get them a wild card spot. If they lose and the Mariners win then they will have a 163 game season before the playoffs begin, with or without them.

The only thing that is known is the A’s will not have home field advantage in any of these series unless they make it to the World Series.

Today would be a good day to begin a 13 game winning streak.

Let’s go A’s!

A little over a month ago I was on my way to Mexico and all was right with the MLB world. The A’s had the best record in baseball and looked like a lock for the division title and a playoff spot. Things have gone horribly wrong since then. The Angels have won the vast majority of their games in the second half and currently own the best record in the bigs. They are also headed to the post season while the A’s are barely hanging on to a wild card spot. Maybe the tides are due for another change?
