This is a somewhat rare Nikkor manual focus zoom lens that matches up very well with the 50-135mm f3.5 AI-s. It's very sharp and has excellent color and contrast output. The lens is in EX- condition. It comes with both front and rear caps. It does not have the "rabbit ears" on it used for indexing which is not needed anyway with today's DSLR's. The glass is free from scratches and fungus. There is VERY little internal dust that absolutely does not effect image quality. The price of $225.00 includes Paypal and shipping fees. I'll only ship to the contiguous US.
If I didn't have this focal length covered I would purchase this lens from Leighton without hesitation. He's a leading figure on the Nikon MF forum, absolutely trustworthy and a really good photographer to boot.
Never thought i'd see you sell this beauty, Leighton. I've seen many terrific shots from you with this lens. GLWS, I can recommend this FMer to those who want this super little lens. I used to have one of these lenses, but sold it to help finance some AF gear at the time, and now have way too many lenses in the 28-50 range, or I may have bought this one myself.
