It has scratch on front element, some fungus in side (tiny). I have cleaned mount as much as I can. <br /><br />It still give me a good contrast - lens hood helps a quite bit. There is a no flair against sun. <br /><br />It will be great for street shots with DX cams (28x1.5 = 42mm equip/35mm full frame) with set to around F8/F11 and taking some blind shots by using deep DOF. It's like good old days. I like physically restricting myself with help of a limitation of the prime lenses. I absolutely love love my 50mm, but 24mm is little bit difficult in some extreme case (flare issue). <br /><br />This shall fulfil my purpose until I found a good copy of an Ai-s version.<div class="blogger-post-footer">© Copyright Hidenao (Ben) Nakagawa.
