I dare not say just how little I paid for this mint 135/2.5....(mint other than not being able to get the filter off...)

If I didn't already have two 135/2.8 Nikkors....

....somebody will be a happy winner of this puppy....

I'll take it off your hands for what you paid...
Seriously, if you're selling, I might be interested. Is it a S-T or S-M-C?

Olympus 14-54mm Mk2 F2.8-3.5

Will probably be selling my Panny 14-45 if the Oly turns out well. I wanted a full weather solution for travel for my OM-D.

Regarding the Super-Tak (not s.m.c) 135/2.5....and others....

I'm going to put together my dozen MF lenses for sale here next week....(Oly, Pentax, Yashica Vivitar etc)....and put them all on sale at the same time, at the lowest price lenses of comparable condition have typically sold for on ebay...I hope that would be considered fair...

Hey there he is! Where ya been?

I think I'd rather have the 28-80 - it's tha same or better IQ as the 35-70 and has a better range!

Ups and downs. Just came back from Stockholm - shooting a lot of models and events recently...
28-80 N? Nah, don't feel like spending a smaller fortune on conversion.
Besides my 35-70 is a work horse and gets beaten up a little. Need a back up..

The 28-80 is an N model? As I read it it was a C/Y... Am I blowing chunks again?

Edit... I see I'm meaning the "28-85mm f/3.3-4" C/Y. Sorry about the mixup.

Just curious, what are the numbers stamped into the back of the Auto-Manual switch? There were two versions of this lens, and the one ending in 812 (6 elements in 6 groups) is the one to keep... . I did a shoot-out between V1 (802 - which has 5 elements in 4 groups) and V2, and the newest (812) won hands-down, wide-open. By f5.6 and beyond, they were pretty much the same, but I buy fast glass to use wide-open, so it matters to me. I sold the first version on evilbay, along with some other Takumar glass that was more tired than wired...
