[QUOTE="Ironwood, post: 690336, member: 10447"] I think it’s one of Nikon’s sharpest. I have been tempted to get the earlier model that doesn’t have AF, they say it’s as good optically, I rarely use AF with mine, I have read where the non-AF one is nicer to manually focus. But this one is doing the job for me, and I already have more lenses than I use. I am trying to train him to do tricks as well ;) Now you just have to decide, get it fixed or buy another one that already works. So parts must be still available for it I guess. Looking at your lens in the photo, it is in much better condition than mine on the outside. I dropped mine about 4 foot onto my concrete driveway, it took a bit more paint off and added some scratches, but it still works perfectly. I think it was dropped at least once before I got it too, going by the marks on it. They built them strong back then. [/QUOTE]
