Unfortunately I distroyed my copy of the 24-120 only a month after buying it. First 'accident ' in many years. See https://www.nikonians.org/forums/dcboard.php?decission-on-af-24-120-f4-repair-or-buy&forum=146&topic_id=241999&mesg_id=241999&page= . Not the best way to return to photography hobby after some time out, but that's life.
I liked it as a walk around general purpose lens. The 'devis' I received from local repair service is total nonsense. Therefore I'm considering several alternatives, including second hand in good condition, to replace it once I can shovel the monies.
Is yours still for sale? Still at 800 CHF?

jordivb Nikonian since 01st Mar 2009Sun 20-Sep-15 08:12 AMThanks for your prompt reply and solidarity!
I still find 800 CHF a bit expensive, but I assume lens is practically new and is the same order of magnitude of the absurd price I was quoted for repair.
I'll need to make a decission within next week and I'd send you a pm.
I'm based in Manresa, close to Barcelona. But I work for a company based in Yverdon, and I'll be there for some meetings from 6th to 8th October. It would be ideal to pick it up, and of course share a beer, if I could 'escape' for a while to Boudry.....Jordi

Bought in March 2015. Works admirably, but doesn't fit my use, I need both longer and wider. I cover the longer end by using the 28-300 a lot, and I will use the money - hopefully - to get a 18-35.
Price: 800 CHF.
I'll post photos later.
