Item for Sale
Mint Quantaray 28-90 3.5-5.6 AF 1:2.3 Macro in PKA mount with UV filter

Asking Price
20

Item Description
The lens appears almost new to me. Very little sign of use. Very clean and everything works. A budget one lens solution on film body and a serviceable walk around lens on digital. Most of all, it has a very decent 1:2.3 macro function at the 90mm end. Here is a link to the product on ritzcamera website. Apparently its MSRP is $100 although i dont think it is worth that much.
Quantaray 28-90 mm 3.5-5.6 Autofocus Zoom Lens for Sony/Minolta - 251664942 - RitzCamera.com

I think this lens can serve as a cheap backup zoom for prime shooters and also people who is interested in getting into macro. You also get a quantaray 55mm DMC uv filter made in Japan and a peddle lens hood.

Here is everything that you will get for $20

Like I said, the lens looks almost new and apparently made in Japan. I was pleasantly surprised that it has 9 aperture blades.

The lens has a macro switch to achieve 1:2.3 ratio at the 90mm end.

The card in the first picture is the size of a credit card. The second picture is taken wide open at the minimal focusing distance to give you an idea what 1:2.3 looks like.

Any questions, please PM me. I have very good feedback here. Thanks for looking

Seems like not much interest for this lens
I am open to offers.
Hopefully someone will find a use for it. Don't want to see it collect dust on my shelf.

PM sent with paypal id. I am the cheapo guy who can't let this bargain to get loose. What is wrong with people who craved for $700 zoom lens without a macro feature and a poor record?

is that a plastic mount? good deal for 2 bucks I suppose, but definitely not for me.

I would've bought this lens if I hadn't bought Hinman's 28-105 some time ago.
