    I'm heading over to London for the weekend soon and was hoping to pick up a couple of lenses on the cheap, hopefully 2nd hand.

    Does anyone know of any good dealers there?

    Thanks.

    Good luck, but you must realise that Nikon, Canon & Sigma have all put prices up.

    I have a Sony and i'm looking to buy 2nd hand, so Minolta prob. Just thought there'd be way more selection and options there.

    Hmmm look for the 70-210 f4(constant) and the 75-300 f4.5-5.6. Just make sure there early ones for the zooms (they will say maxxum on the side) as there better of better build and there optics are pretty good.
