Mint! Free Shipping! Nikon Ai Nikkor 300mm F 4.5 Telephoto Lens(#52912)

The tank

The first impression is the incredible build quality and its weight. They do not make them like that anymore. I also love the built-in lens hood, also metallic. The only plastic thing on it is the focus ring. The one I bought is over 20-25 years old, and looks like new. This baby was build to last. Maybe I was lucky that the seller preserved it so well, but the glass is perfect. No fungus, haze aso. The only downside that may be is that is completely manual. I have no problem with that. Being manual has some advantages. No AF motor to break, and you can tell it Exactly where your focus should be. Obviously, no vibration reduction, but also an advantage and a disatvantage. Less parts, less chances for things to break. I bought it mainly to shoot from a tripod, and I can tell you it does the job perfectly. Extremely sharp and saturated images. It IS an issue firing it handheld, but that can be surpassed. Go over 1/1000 sec and all should be fine. The focus ring is sturdy and takes some effort to turn it, but that makes it very, very precise. The aperture ring moves from f/4.5 to f/22 in one stop increments. Overall, I find it the best performance/value lens I have so far. Its price was less than $200! And it will last longer than any 300 mm or equivalent produced today! I love it and I hope that you all will have a chance to try it someday! There will be love at first sight.
