Pentax-F 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5 (Worldwide)

Item Description
Here is a copy of the legendary Pentax-F 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5. It is barely larger than the FA 50mm f/1.4...but it's a zoom! It has a 1:4 macro function at 70mm.
Externally, it shows typical signs of F series wear: the ends of the rubber ring around the focus distance window are slightly lifted and the distance screen has some small cracks (I can pass my nail over them and it doesn't catch, so they're internal). None of this affects the integrity of the lens.
Optics seem to be fine, with no scratches at either end. I can see some dust inside, but nothing that affects the pictures.
Aperture clicks with no issues and focus/zoom rings turn fine (although the focus ring is not the smoothest, but similar to my FA 50mm in feel). Diaphragm is snappy and there is no oil on the blades.
Comes with original Pentax front cap and generic rear (not pictured).
Please leave a message below to establish precedence and then PM me. In that order!
NOTE: For $10 extra, I'll throw in a Pentax SF10 camera in full working order, complete with instruction manual.
