Item Description
Not much to say about this lens really, bought it a while back off Ebay but never use it so it has to go. Fantastic condition, a few very small faint marks but considering how the paint on these lenses normally goes I have to say its probably one of the best you will see. Boxed with hood, caps and paperwork, everything works as it should and the glass is unmarked.

Some extra pictures for Vranx.

First is picture of the mark .. not a dent, more of a scuff.

Second is of rear element.

Just a quick question, what lens did you use to shoot the pictures of this lens? The product pictures are fantastic!

I grabbed the first lens I could get my hands on .. it was sold the next day for £30.

No big surprise there - I have one, and that lens is better than any inexpensive zoom has the right to be! Not quite a prime, but creates nice images so you often don't notice the difference. Probably the limited zoom range helps make the high quality.
