Pros:Very robust to be an AF, extraordinarily fun on Aps-c with the wide-angle macro mode, which allows close-up thrusts well set with a remarkable perspective and immersive effect in the scene; maintains its brightness for a long time: f 3.5 constant from 28 to 35mm, f 3.8 from 35 to 50mm, f 4 from 50 to 70, and f 4.5 from 70 to 85; they pull it behind you for four bucks, af responsive and quite fast. FLUID MAF bezel also in manual, has a diaphragm ring and is written "Made In Japan" !!!
Cons:It stretches a little zooming in and rotates the front lens.
Opinion:In a word: funny ! I have the first version, the one with the thin and knurled plastic maf ring: even nice to see, it is a nice brick without annoying optical kit games. It does not vignette and does not produce flares, on D700 and D200 it is a pleasure and balances well with the 2 old women. Mount the unusual 62 filters. It covers a very useful range for trips, and the macro mode is very fun, as I said above. Sturdy plastics and zoom rubberized bezel with excellent grip, a little less than that of the maf, but you get used to it. It does not immediately become a dark cave like some modern varifocals when zooming in on the canvas: it retains brightness for a long time. It suffers from aberrations and physiological drops at TA, but recovers well if closed by at least one stop until f11. For what it costs, it is worth trying !!!
Pros:Everything that a handyman of those years can have, and he is cheap...
Cons:For the era in which it was designed and marketed, absolutely nothing!
Opinion:A historic all-rounder, not surprisingly produced for 13 years. Robust and mechanically very good. Fluid and precise rings. Af not particularly fast, but more than enough to bring home great shots. It returns excellent colors and resolution, not as sharp as modern lenses, it also allows digital cameras to get very delicate shots. I use it on digital as on mechanical fm and totally manual. Really satisfied.
Pros:It is located at 2 mechanical money other times solidityMacro acceptable
Cons:Don't try it
Opinion:It's not lightning but it's accurate And I'm frankly satisfiedThe colors really give me the feeling of using the film Aesthetically it's also pleasant fluid movementsMorbido to the touch Macro manual not professional but effective For those who do not mind frills in qu esto case there's substance Taken x curiosity at 60 euros I keep it
Pros:Sharp, excellent construction and solidity. Fluid rings, used price. Not for last Made in Japan. Does not suffer the backlight. Limited distortion.
Cons:For what I've spent, nobody.
Opinion:Taken used, but in impeccable condition. Whoever bought it never used it. Paid €60. I work on D 700, fantastic, excellent colors, very sharp, the AF is not lightning but satisfactory. Makes three-dimensional images. The construction, then. ... you can see it's stuff from other times. I always carry it with me, as a generic, also good for landscapes and portraits. Perhaps the macro function does not convince me fully, but otherwise I recommend it. If you find some specimen kept well take it, for what it costs it is worth it. Definitely better than the recent G's. Few frills but so much substance. Too bad it's not 2.8 but you can't have it all. If you like strength and weight is not a problem, you will definitely be satisfied. Rated 9.5.
Pros:Excellent sharpness and mechanical construction
Cons:Weight and size, focus and manual adjustments
Opinion:I bought this 90 years old aim to use it on FF Sony A7, almost out of curiosity. I had read some reviews on the internet, including http://kenrockwell.com/nikon/2885af.htm who spoke very good vintage of this goal. After you've tried on several occasions on the Sony FF and also on a Nikon APS-C I had confirmation of optical and mechanical quality of the lens. I bought in a shop in Milan, advertised here on Juza, and I can say that is true of most of the 170 euro paid, shipping included. Photos taken are very sharp and are comparable with those taken with fixed focal. It also has the ability to take pictures in the macro focal 28 mmm, where, however, it takes some skill to achieve them. Of course you need to manually focus, as it was once on the old film camera, and Sony with the adapter ring you must also manually diaphragm. All operations you back in time, but I would say quite simple and straightforward to do. The results are there andgive satisfaction. Percontro is a perspective all metal that has consequently a certain weight and size with the addition of the adapter ring is quite relevant
