Up for sale is a Nikon AF Nikkor 28-80mm F/3.5-5.6D standard zoom lens for the Nikon F mount, made in Japan. This is the later 8-element version with the wide manual focus/zoom ring and a traditional aperture ring, so it meters correctly on both modern AF bodies and older manual-metering Nikon film cameras. A versatile everyday range covering wide-angle to short telephoto, this compact and lightweight lens is a great low-cost option for both film and full-frame digital bodies. The lens comes complete with its genuine Nikon front cap; no rear cap is included — please see Item Specifics below.
