Featuring a classic push-pull zoom design that allows for swift framing changes across its 70mm to 210mm focal range, making it popular for sports, portraiture, and wildlife photography. Built with a solid metal bayonet mount, aperture control ring with minimum aperture lock switch, distance scale window, and standard 62mm front filter thread. Compatible with full-frame FX and crop-sensor DX Nikon DSLRs featuring a body screw-drive AF motor (e.g., D90, D7000 series, D300, D700, D800, D750, D850), operating in manual focus mode on entry-level bodies (D3000\/D5000 series). Serial number 2017063. Complete with front snap-on lens cap and rear push-on lens cap.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCondition\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOverall Condition: Fair \/ Needs Service\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCosmetically the lens barrel is in clean condition with minor external handling marks and rub wear. The push-pull zoom mechanism operates smoothly throughout the range, focus helicoid rotates freely, manual aperture ring clicks into all detents down to f\/32, and the aperture blades are clean and snappy. However, strong backlighting reveals noticeable internal fungus growth and haze clustered across internal optical elements. Serial number 2017063.
