I have a 100-300mm and it gets used very little. The 50mm 1.4 is the lens that stays attached to my camera most. The problem is that anything over 200mm on a cropped sensor requires a tripod or IS.

Heh, lenses are currently a bit thin on the ground and I generally only do EF mount anyway. Just had a quick nose on ebay and the 18-135mm seem to be quite rear atm and are fetching in excess of £200! I've never paid more that £80 for a lens. The tripod still has your name on it as well as a few cobwebs from sitting in the shed :-)

Y'know what, I'd go for �90 plus postage (not knowing what postage costs yet, but I'd guess not a huge amount more) just to avoid the faffing about with ebay, paypal, etc..
