Nikon 75mm f/4.5 Nikkor-SW Lens in Copal 0 Shutter, mint condition
A Large-Format Wide-Angle Lens for 4x5, 6x17cm and 6x9cm: 1.) 75mm f/4.5 Nikon Nikkor-SW. This lens came from the estate of my late friend and photography professor at U.C. San Diego, Phel Steinmetz. It's in almost-new condition; it was used very little in the last ten years as Phel was transitioning into digital. I have not used this lens personally, but I do know that Phel tested his lenses meticulously before he accepted them. The fact that this was in his "keeper" set meant that it had passed very strict standards of his own. I bought several lenses from him over the years, and each of them was excellent. The lens is mounted in a black Copal #0 shutter, with speeds of T, B, and 1 through 1/500 second. It is complete with mounting flange and includes a cable release. It has original caps, front and rear.
Here are the details, followed by a photograph of the lens:
1.) Nikon 75mm f/4.5 Nikkor-SW. Apertures to f/45, Image circle @f/16: 200mm (covers 6x17cm; almost covers 5x7), filter size: 67mm. My experience with Nikon wide-angles is that they don't need center filters. My Nikon 65mm f/4 outperforms my 90mm f/4.5 Rodenstock Grandagon-N in that regard.
Price: $395, free shipping in continental U.S.
