Readers Gear on eBay (May 2009 edition)

Welcome to the May 2009 edition of "Reader's Gear on eBay", where we spotlight eBay auctions of some of our readers. You can learn more about this feature, and if you have any items on eBay you would like to see featured, please let us know.

Before we get started, please note that you should treat these like any other eBay auction and do all the necessary research and due diligence. We do not put the listings through the Spanish Inquisition.

The first two sets of auctions are "moving to full frame" sales, as both photographers are making the move to 35mm full frame DSLRs.
