This lens was once professional midrange zoom lens of the 1990s. Having macro mode at focal length 35mm. You can see more details of Kenrockwell : Nikon 35-70mm f/2.8 AF About the real status, the lens have been working really well, still looking as good as the picture in Kenrockwell's link or even better. It has both front and rear cap, and its hood. I prefer cash and pickup so that anybody can check the lens. Location : 00440 Helsinki Contact : private message Price : 250 euro
