For Sale FS (Europe or WW): Nikkor Ai-S 50mm f/1.8 'long nose', 1981-1985

[sandermarijn]

1981-1985 production, so called 'long nose' version, perhaps the sharpest and most desirable 50/1.8 manual focus lens that Nikon has made. Not identical at all in optical design to the current 50/1.8 AF-D (that is more akin to the 'short nose' E-version of the 50/1.8 Ai-S).

This is an excellent copy. Focus is beautifully smooth (it just feels 'right'), aperture and glass are clean, no scratches, only the usual dust particles found in lenses this age, no hazy dust or whatever.

Comes with front (generic) and rear caps.

Asking 75 euros, paypalled and shipped within the EU. I consider this a bit of a bargain, although I'm obviously not the one supposed to say that .

Worldwide shipping is possible, ask me for a quote.

Shipping can be combined with other items. Please see my other classifieds.

I have perfect seller feedback on ebay as "sanderpander" and a decent posting history on this site.

Mail me: sandermarijn at hotmail dot com.

Thanks, Sander
