I am officially calling my closet a T.A.R.D.I.S now...apparently the Doctor doesn't have the last one after all.
As previously mentioned HERE, this is the first of the Canon FD lenses I dug up to be donated.
it is a EX+ condition Vivitar 200mm f/3.5 lens with built in metal pull out lens hood. everything on it works perfect. glass is minty. (maybe the tiniest bit of internal dust)
Not really much else to say. If you can get over the fact that it is a manual focus lens, and that you will have to use an adapter to mount it on a modern DSLR (with or without the infinity focus insert) then this is a fantastic lens to add to your collection of primes. Not exactly a lightning fast f/2.8, but the price is right. (its free, if you weren't already aware)
Yes, you heard right. FREE to a good home. as usual, we will cover shipping costs. (ConUS and Alaska ONLY as covered by USPS flat rate shipping)
If you are stationed overseas somewhere, APO ships just like a US address, and does not cost any extra so APO's are fine too.
If you are interested in this lens, post in this thread with a gear list (cameras and lenses) and how you feel you would benefit from receiving it.
if you do NOT already have a FD-ES adapter, it will NOT disqualify you from the donation. just be aware that one WILL be needed unless you have an older camera with a Canon FD mount. (we will NOT be providing one with the lens, your on your own for that one, sorry)
Persons that do not post in this thread or do not satisfy donation requirements will not be considered.
(in exchange for free stuff and shipped on our dime, all I am asking is an honest gear list and for you to put just a little thought into why you feel you need the lens. Not looking for a whole dissertation, just a little something to show you have given some thought into getting this focal length/manual lens/whatever as apposed to just asking for it because its free)
Me and the wife reserve the right to change the conditions of and/or cancel the donation at any time for any dumb old reason.
I will let this thread run for a week (less if interest is really low)
looking forward to someone giving this lens a new home and new life.
