Last week I received a Sigma AF Zoom Master 35-70mm f/3.5-4.5 Lens from the @bay, for only 11euro.My Plan was to use it on my D3200 and Nikon F55 & F75.

The glass is clear and bright and the aperture works fine. It will not auto-focus on the digital cameras which do not have a drive pin such as the D40. So in my D3200 I can meter and I can have aperture control but no AF. Not bad! So I took it out for a test.
I think it is OK ,not super sharp AF not yet tested not in film bodies. Overall good solid lens that will be fun to use.
