The lens has MACRO capability, coupled with a nice zoom range and a fast 3.5-4.5 f-stop make this a nice lens to keep on your camera all the time. I prefer the original F series to the FA series not just because of performance, but also because of build quality. Its nice having some metal in the build of a lens. The condition of the lens body and glass is excellent, and the diaphragm is clean and snappy, just as a recently professionally cleaned (by Peachtree Camera Repair for oil on diaphragm) lens should be. It is designed to work on Pentax autofocus bodies like the SF-1N, but will work on other Pentax K-mount cameras like Super Program and K1000. With other Pentax K-mount cameras, the lens will support autofocus and program mode if the camera supports it. The body shows minimal wear from normal, careful use. The filter has some cleaning marks (performing its function to protect the objective). $7.00 shipping via Priority Mail (cost in US, international higher) payment via money order >>>> <<<< Subject: Pentax-F 35-135/f3.5-4.5 NICE AUTOFOCUS LENS (Just Cleaned) Date: Thu, 22 Mar 2001 04:27:43 GMT From: Craig R <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Organization: Take the Picture Newsgroups: rec.photo.marketplace A nice Pentax autofocus lens with Pentax front and rear caps, and a HOYA filter.
