ITEM(S) CONDITION:
OPTICALLY: EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT+
there are NO deep scratches, deep 'cleaning marks', cracks or any other serious damages on lens glasses; there's NO fungus, haze, separations or any other really serious issues inside optical construction of this lens; there are few MICRO 'cleaning marks' on glasses coatings, but they are really FAINT ones, not deep ones; lens has few MICRO marks/spots on glasses coatings, what is quite normal in vintage lenses; lens has some pieces of MICRO dust inside optical construction, but nothing to worry about; when you check lens under very strong LED source, it seems to have some 'ghosting' (is a bit foggy?), bot not really much; this fogginess is very common in this particular model and most lenses has it
MECHANICALLY: EXCELLENT / EXCELLENT+
focus ring works smooth, as for old lens; focus ring has small backlash (play) on it, but this is factory backlash, quite common in this model; zoom ring works smooth and fine; aperture ring works smooth and fine; aperture stops to the end without any problems; aperture blades with NO grease on them
VISUALLY: EXCELLENT- / EXCELLENT
there are NORMAL signs of use on lens casing, as can be seen on real pictures added to this auction; lens casing has some scratches and some paint missing, that is normal in used lens; lens scale numbers are still visible and in good shape; there are NO serious damages on lens casing, like serious dents or cracks, but as many used lens, this lens also have some micro dents or cracks on it's casing, which are just visual issues
