So, someone one is selling some manual lenses for really cheap. 3 lenses nikon mount, Vivitar 35mm 2.8, ProMaster 28mm 2.8 and a DeJur 135mm 2.8 for like $50. I'm trying to build up my lens collection. Granted, theyre after market brands but I was wondering what you guys thought. Any info would be appreciated. Thanks..
 
Go for it. Some 3rd party lenses are good. But check everything, aperture, fungus, focus, etc. Throw out the ones you don't like.
 
Unless it's the difference between eating or not, do it! Even if one of them is rubbish, you should take it apart and look at the lens's inner workings. I learned the most about optics after dismantling a lens and manipulating the elements to experiment with the image.
