Nikon AF Nikkor 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5 Lens

The Nikon AF Nikkor 28–85mm f/3.5–4.5 is a versatile mid-range zoom from Nikon’s early autofocus lineup. Covering wide-angle to short telephoto, it’s a great all-purpose lens for everyday shooting, travel, portraits, and general use.

At 28mm, you’ve got a classic wide field of view for street and landscapes, while 85mm gives you a flattering portrait focal length. This lens also features a macro capability at the long end, allowing for closer focusing and added versatility.

Built in the era when Nikon lenses were still largely metal and overbuilt, it has a solid feel and pairs well with cameras like the F4, F5, F100, N90s, and many Nikon DSLRs with screw-drive autofocus support.

Condition: Good

• Moderate internal haze present
• Minor internal dust consistent with age
• No fungus observed
• Aperture blades are clean and oil-free
• Autofocus functions properly
• Zoom and focus rings operate smoothly
• Cosmetic wear consistent with use

The moderate haze will reduce contrast, especially in backlit or high-contrast scenes. Images may appear slightly softer or “glowy,” particularly wide open. Still usable as a budget or character lens, but best suited for someone aware of its limitations.

A practical, affordable zoom for Nikon F-mount shooters or those experimenting with vintage AF glass.
