This Leica 90-280mm f2.8-4 APO-Vario-Elmarit-SL Zoom Lens, #4578393, is in great condition with minor handling wear. I rate it cosmetically an (9+). The focus and zoom rings are smooth, the autofocus and aperture function properly, and the glass is clean and clear with no haze, marks, or fungus. There are a few faint specks of dust inside, but they do not affect image quality.
