I wanted a better lens for the Nikon FM2 that I rescued out of a box and had repaired (it needed the film winder fixing and the meter servicing). I was looking on eBay and I came across a Sigma 28-70 F2.8 AIS manual focus lens! Perfect I thought, the price as a little high so I offered \u00a355 and the seller accepted. I don’t know a great deal about the lens but it looked to be in good condition optically, and not bad in general. So I thought that was a reasonable price for a fast lens, so worth a shot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It arrived yesterday, and it’s in good condition. The focus ring and the zoom feel good. Optics and clean and only a little ware on the exterior. So I am pleased with my purchase. Its a sunny day today so I might take it for a walk in the woods and see how it does. Get a film through it and check is ok. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[104,103],"class_list":["post-663","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-kit-posts","tag-f2-8","tag-sigma"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=663"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9006,"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/663\/revisions\/9006"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=663"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=663"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pleaseleavequietly.net\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=663"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
