Letting a few things go as I shift away from a hybrid workflow. All the lenses work excellently on digital hence the hybrid tag.
Nikon FM2N Silver, serviced 2020 (7.5/10 cond, $SOLD)
Great manual focus 35mm film body that was my backup. Had an aperture lever that gave me some issues (wasn't stopping lens down) so I had it serviced with a new aperture feeler and body checked / re-calibrated locally for focus and seals. All speeds are perfect, rolls came out perfect, camera has some tiny nicks in the finish on top and back, but mostly on the bottom, where there's a small gash in front of the tripod thread (presumably from a sharp tripod). See photo for details.
Zeiss Milvus ZF.2 Distagon 50mm F1.4 (9/10 cond, boxed, $649)
Excellent lens on my Df and on the FM2n, clearly exceeding its resolution, but I'm ready to move on to something with AF for events as I'm doubting my own eyesight. Very faint signs of use externally, has always had a B+W UV filter on it, so glass is very clean. Only some faint scrapes on the lens cap from dropping the lens cap on concrete. Comes boxed with all caps and B+W 67mm filter.
Zeiss ZF.2 Distagon 28mm F2 "Hollywood" (8.5/10 cond, boxed, $629)
Another gem of a manual focus lens for use on the FM2n. Tremendous resolution both on film and digital, again moving to something with AF as it's not getting a ton of use and I prefer more compact vintage glass for 35mm photography. Has some surface wear on the lens cap from rubbing in the bag. Comes with Kenko UV filter, caps, box.
Nikkor 105mm F2 AF-D DC (8/10 cond, $SOLD)
Great lens, very clean externally and focus is snappy and smooth. One small cleaning mark towards the edge of the front element and some tiny internal dust, otherwise optically fine with no haze or fungus, and images come out great. Comes with generic front and rear caps.

All prices are USD and shipping is from Seattle, WA area, with shipping and fees included already in the price for your convenience (assuming shipping is to the lower 48 states of USA).
