Yes, I think it's good. It's cool to be able to buy a brand new camera that's 30 years old. It's not even a bad price for one with signs of normal use. Great camera and lens, IMO.

Had it on the watch list just didn't have money to buy it. Should make someone very happy.

I'll bet that old mercury battery is still good...

It IS a super sharp lens. It's just that there are sharper lenses out there...

I don't believe half of what people write in eBay ads anyway. The word that bothers me the most is "minty" instead of mint. I don't buy cameras because they taste good, as I have enough iron in my diet already...

ah, semantics issue...

how would you then describe a lens that produces 'sharp' images?

Be careful not to cut yourself with it! use a lens cap!
