Condition Note: AS-IS / Parts or Repair
This lens is being sold strictly AS-IS for parts, repair, or experimental use. Please review the following condition details carefully:
Optical Condition: The internal glass elements exhibit fungus and haze. This will significantly impact image contrast and sharpness, producing a “dreamy” or soft-focus effect unless professionally cleaned.
Mechanical State: The zoom and focus mechanics are present, but the lens is intended for those comfortable with optics restoration or those seeking a “lo-fi” vintage aesthetic.
Included Accessories: Includes both front and rear lens caps to protect the exterior glass surfaces.
Product Features
Telephoto Reach: The 70-210mm range offers excellent compression for portraits and enough magnification to bring distant subjects closer.
Macro Functionality: Includes a dedicated macro setting, allowing for close-up photography of small subjects with a vintage rendering.
Multi-Coated (MC) Optics: Designed to help with flare reduction and color transmission (prior to the development of internal environmental issues).
Breech-Lock Mount: Features the traditional silver rotating locking ring, compatible with the Canon AE-1, A-1, F-1, and other FD-mount SLR bodies.
