These 35mm-format lenses were rescued after a relative's apartment fire. Some were grossly damaged, some barely. Less damaged lenses (Lens1 through Lens 5) are for sale or for free.
Before I dispose of the lenses that were damaged more severely, I offer them as-is to anyone who can make use of one or more of them. Those lenses are collected in the "Lens-6" paragraph.
All these lenses are sold/offered as-is, buyer pays for shipping (which I'll make as cheap as possible).
In a couple of ads to follow, I'll list some cameras, and some miscellaneous items for sale/free, from the same salvage.
Please send me a PM with requests or offers, or to claim. I may take up to 24 hours to reply.
Lens 1 - A Nikkor 105mm f2.5 AIS lens. Has enough fungus to need disassembly and cleaning. Front and rear lens surfaces are not blemished. It looks worth recovering for someone with the skill and time. $10 Sold
Lens 2 - A Nikkor 24mm f2.8 AIS lens with a light patch of abrasion on the rear element, and it looks like some very light fungus/haze on the inside surface of the rear lens. The front lens surface is unmarred. $10 Sold
Lens 3 - A Vivitar 28mm f2.8 MC N/AIS lens with about 5/8" of the filter ring circumference broken off, but filters and a lens cap will still go on. There is also a bit of abrasion on the rear lens element. The front lens surface is clear and unscratched. Free
Lens 4 - An RMC Tokina 35-105 f3.5-4.3 Zoom AI with a bent filter ring. Functional with no optical anomalies. Free
Lens 5 - A Nikon E series 70-200 f4 Zoom AIS with some spots of fungus inside, otherwise in good shape. Free
Lens 6 - I have several lenses that were doused with water when a fire was put out. They show significant fungus, water, or heat plus water damage. Free to anyone who thinks they have a use for them. They are a Nikkor 24-120mm 3.5-5.6D AF; Nikkor-SC Auto 50mm f1.4 AI; Nikkor-NC Auto 35mm f1.4 AIS; a Micro-Nikkor 55mm f2.8 AIS; Nikkor 135mm f2 AIS; Nikkor ED 180mm f2.8 AIS; Tamron Zoom f3.8-? 80-250; and a Tamron TeleMacro f4-5.8 70-300 AIS. I will separate one or more lenses from the rest if asked, but I'd rather not spend time photographing them. Recipient pays only for actual shipping cost. All Claimed
