Price: CAD $900.
Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.
Preferred method of payment is bank transfer but other methods of payment are accepted.
More info:
Perfect shape - mint. It has Ultra Low Dispersion lens elements and a very good performer. Here are screenshots of center and farthest corner, at 31mp, 100% view. Sharpening applied. I think it is a respectable result for a fixed aperture MF zoom.

The price is $1350 obo (just started listed it) clear to me.
75-150D, what they consider the current replacement, is $3200. Impossible to find one at a reasonable price.
105-210mm is not available at Toronto dealers. In U.S., new it sells for $2100 to $2371.
Very handy at keeping a light setup for landscape / travel, or removing moire from fashion / clothing / architecture. Only reason that I am not keeping it as I have all the primes it replaces in Mamiya AFD, Hasselblad HC and V, and Fuji GX680.
This lens has never been rented out by me, and hardly used (hence that is why I am selling it). I bought it from a dealer.
Here is the only article I could find on it with tests, and the author really likes this lens.
