AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
A true classic of wide-angle photography, the Nikon Nikkor 24mm f/2.8 has been appreciated for decades for its sharpness and compactness, making it an ideal companion for landscape, architecture, and reportage photography. Introduced in 1977 as an evolution of the previous model, this lens was the first wide-angle in the world to feature the 'close range correction' (CRC) system, an innovative technology that ensures superior image quality even at close distances.
The model in the photo, identified by the serial number that places it in production year (not year-s), features the characteristic 'rabbit ears' perforated coupling fork, typical of this series. Its entirely metal and glass construction testifies to Nikon's manufacturing excellence of the era, offering unparalleled robustness compared to modern optics.
Based on the visual analysis, the object appears to be in good aesthetic condition: the inscriptions are clear, the rubber coating on the focus ring is intact, and the lenses seem clean. The presence of original caps adds value to the piece. Mechanically, these optics are known for smooth focusing and precise diaphragm, features that still make it an excellent choice for both analog and digital photographers (on Nikon full-frame bodies). Please consult the technical sheet to confirm functionality.
