Description

This is another solid third-party zoom lens from the Promaster lineup. The 35-105mm range was a popular "step-up" from the standard 50mm prime lens, offering a bit of wide-angle for landscapes and a decent telephoto for portraits. Like many lenses of this era, it features a "Macro" setting (indicated by the green text in image DSC_0000-1749) which allows for closer focusing at the 35mm end of the zoom. The build is a mix of metal and textured rubber, typical of mid-range optics from the 1980s.
