I haven't really used these lenses since I got my 5D2 so it's finally time to let it go. All lenses come have front and rear caps and all prices include shipping (USPS for Cont. US) + paypal. I don't check these boards/pm often so please email mindlee (at) gmail (dot) com.

Sigma 28mm f1.8 - $100 *SOLD*
This lens looks almost new. The focus ring is backwards like Nikons so you turn it clockwise for infinity.

Canon 50mm f1.8 - $40 *SOLD*
Cool little lens. Extremely compact. Even though I have a 55mm f1.2, I still used this lens with 35mm adapter because of it size. Lens cap is chipped but still functional. See pictures.

Canon 85mm f1.8 - $120 *SOLD*
Very good lens, have some minor dings and normal wear but the glass is clean. It has 55mm thread but I added a step up ring to 58mm to match my 28mm f/1.8 and 55mm f/1.2 and filters.

The next two are inexpensive lenses I used when I first got started with my 35mm adapter. They're not great but not bad either. The great thing about them is that they both used the Tamron adaptall system which lets you switch from Canon FD mount to Nikon F mount. They're priced so low that you would probably pay this much for the adapter itself. One of them have the Nikon adapter and other has Canon. Let me know which adapter you want.

Tamron 28mm f2.5 - $15 *SOLD*
Another very compact lens. Decent, vignettes a bit.

Tamron 35-80 f2.8-3.8 - $30 *SOLD*
This lenses is surprisingly good. The zoom ring is a little loose but function fine. It's a SP lens which is part of Tamron's better line of lenses. This one comes with a case.

And lastly, this is a feeler I'm not sure I'm ready to let go yet:

Canon 55mm f1.2 - ??
This is one I personally took apart and remove the click stops for the aperture ring. This is awesome when filming outdoors in cloudy days because I can smoothly adjust for changing light conditions. I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong aperture ring (which is partly why I resist selling it) but I did this over a year ago and it's still working fine. I'm currently using it with a Bower FD-EOS converter on my 5D Mark II. The focus ring is a little stiff. It's fine if you're focusing by hand but when using it with my Cavision follow focus and Redrock focus rings, it slips occasionally if not tighten down all the way. I wanna know how much people are willing to pay for it and if the right price comes along I might let it go.
