For Sale FS: Nikon Nikkor-P Auto 105/2.5...

[bliorg]

Hi, all -

I'm selling my Nikkor-P Auto 105/2.5 lens. This lens is not AI'd. It's a very nice copy of the lens (the serial number, according to this page puts it as a later 5/4 Xenotar-design version). There's some wear and color loss on the focus ring and barrel, but the glass is in great shape and the 7-bladed aperture works wonderfully. Physically, there's nothing wrong with this lens.

A sample image from this lens, shot wide open, shows how wonderfully sharp it is, and how beautifully it renders out of focus areas (excuse the crappy CVS scan):

I'm getting out of Nikon gear; I'll be selling a 24mm and a Nikkormat FT2 with 55mm micro in the next few days as well.

I'd like to get out of this lens what I have into it: $120, plus insured Priority shipping (say, about $8 in the US). PayPal only.

Thanks,
Scott

SOB I just bought one on ebay for more and it's 6 blades. FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

I may be interested in the 24 though.

This is an awesome lens. One of my favs for portraits with B&W. Nice creamy tones and great sharpness.

Best pre-AI lens ever.

Also, according to that website, I have an early version, as I had thought, mine is an NKK. My guess from my SN is 63'ish.
