Totally Usable
Okay, so this may be one I regret at some point, but…
I picked up an F3 recently, and included in the kit were the three (35, 50 and 85mm) PL lenses. I'd been prepared to not like these lenses, but honestly, they're the bees knees. For budget-smart PL glass, I don't think you can do any better. The glass is great and the mechanics are nice. The issue is, I've got a complete set of Nikon manual lenses that simply fit my shooting needs better.
So if you'd like to get into PL glass, I'll let these go for $5400.
Now, part of the package also included a beautiful SKB hard case (Pelican-style), complete with custom-cut foam for an F3 body, the three PL lenses, three batteries, four SxS cards, microphone and charger/card reader and other accessories. If someone wants the above glass, I'll include the case for free. If someone wants the case only, feel free to make an offer.
I can post pictures if needed, but the lenses are in perfect condition, both optically and operationally.
And I reserve the right to change my mind and keep all this great stuff. I really am torn on whether or not to keep the lenses. Life is full of tough choices, I suppose.
