Great fast 85. Shows quite a bit of wear on the outside, but the stuff that matters is as it should be:
- Spotless aperture
- No signs of fungus
- All mechanics work perfectly (focusing, aperture, M/A switch)
- Sharp, contrasty and with great bokeh.
I'm only selling this because I've also got the S-M-C Tak 85/1.8, and I can't justify keeping both. The S-M-C Tak may be minutely better when pixel peeping, but in everyday use they're pretty much indistinguishable.
Comes with original front and end caps and a nice long hood (made for 135/2.5 and 200/4).
As it says, it's got some heavy signs of use. The most significant are:
- Bezel around front element is scratched (pic no 1)
- Front element has two small scratches right near the edge, each 4-7 mm long (pic no 2). I have never been able to see any effect in pictures.
