No drug habit but I do have problem settling with one camera. The next great thing comes out and I tend to rush and sell my gear and then buy it. Then it turns out the next great thing is not as great as I thought and I end up regretting my decision and then selling it and buying back what I used to have, realizing it suited my needs better! Hopefully those days are over.

I bought my first 16x manual new for around $1325 at BH. Then I bought my 2nd one for a steal of $750 used from a trusted DVinfo member. Finally, my 3rd one was bought used on Ebay for $925. I was kicking myself! While I did make money when I originally sold them, I ended up losing money having to rebuy them again. A hard way to learn a lesson.

I would think you should be able to find one in the $900 range or a little lower used.

Good Luck!

I need to get this lens. Are you guys rebuying these 16xs new or used? And how much are you paying?
