The glass was ok but the focusing ring cover with the distance scale was long gone.
Anyway it was completely usable and decided to give it a try.
Nothing impressive nor dissapointing about its performance stopped down.
But I got a nice surprise when I tested the bokeh wide open. Its particular soap bubble bokeh was very nice, distinctive and made the lens a keeper.
Now I use it even more than the other lens included in the deal.
If you find one in good condition and cheap enough, go for it.
Just make sure that the plastic that covers the focusing ring is not cracked, otherwise it will fall and you will have an ugly (but still usable) lens.
