Refurb Nikon 35mm f/2 and 60mm micro lenses in stock - pRICE cUBE - 09-03-2008
I am posting these ones because they pop up maybe once every 2 months.
35mm F/2 lens for $275
Makes for a nice fast "normal" lens on dx, a 50mm equivalent
60mm macro for $339
For 1:1 macro shooting.

that 60 1:1 on a DX is a good size. I love my Sigma 105 on full frame cameras.

I shot the manual 55/3.5 and later the AF 60/2.8 (along with the 105's) as daily users for 15years im my medical days.
They are some of the finest lenses that Nikon ever ground.
I always liked the 60 mm because it would go 1:1 without an extension tube (55mm manual would go 1:2)
Getting a good macro lens will change the way you look at things for sure. Nice deal.

The 60mm macro saves about $40 over a new one, but it's the previous version, not the latest from Nikon

Saves you about a $140 over the new version.

I just ordered one because the screen on the crappy Polaroid digital we picked up last winter for $100 cracked.
Thanks for the tip.

The 60mm micro was my only nikon lens for a while until Nikon started getting off their rear ends and making cameras such as the D200.
This old school version may not have the silent focus motor but you do get a real aperture ring. I guess that's the luddite in me that would rather use an aperture ring over a dial.
