Mint Condition
The NIKKOR-H Auto 28mm f/3.5 is one of the earliest, Pre-Ai Nikkor manual focus wide-angle lenses for the F mount. Initially launched in 1959, this lens went through several iterations over time with slightly different optical designs.
AI stands for Automatic Aperture Indexing. Unlike earlier non-AI lenses, all you need to do is twist and lock this lens onto your camera. Earlier lenses required manual fiddling to get the prong at f/5.6 to engage a feeler on earlier (pre 19877) bodies.
Focus is exquisite. It's manual-only of course, but like all Nikon AI and AI-s manual-focus lenses, it has the most precise, smooth and silky focus ring you'll ever feel.
