Mechanical: The focus is smooth, although it does stick slightly on the stops at each end of the range. The lens has a slightly dry helicoid, but the aperture is both working and smooth.
Optical: There are some cleaning marks on the internal elements and a few specks of dust. Other than this, the lens is generally clean and clear with no haze, fungus or major scratches.
Cosmetic: Clean for the age. The chrome is good with no obvious signs of use, damage or dents. The vulcanite at the base of the lens has cracked slightly.
Electronic: N/A
Comes with non-original front and rear caps.
