How much is the 18-55mm kit lens worth?

Raymond Lin · 9 Nov 2006 at 12:41

I am not looking to sell, I am looking to buy. Don't have enough funds to get a 17-40 so going to get this as a stop gap to cover the wider angle.

Been offered one at £40, is that too much? It seems too much since it's only £20 more for the kit lens kit. Anyone here willing to part with theirs?

They seem to sell for around 50 squid on ebay. Make of that what you will. Personally I'd be happy with paying £40 for one.

Sounds like a fair price. Remember the £20 difference for the body+kit lens is small because its discounted because you are after all buying both as a bundle.
