Shite. Wish I was the only one in love with it, then it’d be hella cheap.

Love all the stories of bargain lens finds at markets and goodwill. It probably sounds like bragging to folks unfamiliar with old Nikons, but the sheer number of F mount lenses still out there actually makes bargain-hunting a pretty fun and rewarding use of your time. I fell in love with the F3 after finding one for $5 in a clearance bin at my local camera store, listed as "broken - shutter won't fire." They knew enough about it to put in batteries, but forgot about the on-switch. Perfectly functioning $5 F3HP.

The “Q” means Quattro, it has 4 elements, a “P” is for penta, 5 elements etc… I have quite a few vintage Nikon lenses, the build quality is so much better than the modern plastic junk and there’s no electronics that will eventually fail.

I have a collection of the modern G lenses and they are wonderful. A while ago, I had bought a 85mm 1.4D off ebay and I love that lens. I didn't want to buy the G version as many people gave great reviews of the D version and was so much cheaper. This got me started looking into the older legacy lenses like the non AI and 70's lenses because I wanted to know more about them. I am now collecting these lenses as they are beautiful in construction and feel. I appreciate your passion for these old lenses. Nikon has such a rich history with legacy lenses and bodies and that's why I am still Nikon today. Thank you for your video.

I love your passion for the old Nikkors. Only the Nikon F-mount has evolved over nearly six decades with amazing backwards compatibility. That fact, along with the "whole ecosystem" of older Nikon equipment is why I have stuck with Nikon for over 4 decades. In fact, I recently bought a PB-4 Bellows focusing unit from the early 1970's and it is still one of the most versatile bellows units ever made.

Travis the Nikon F coupled with 55f1.2 is awesome, thanks for sharing collection.

Old Nikon lenses are pretty nice. Amazing how they are still used in today's modern cameras and multiple brand camera bodies.

Professor Mortz.........Excellent content and incredible overview of the "Old School Glass" Nikon Lenses. I have all the Lenses in your review except the Autofocus 85mm..........Thanks for the great video....!!!!

Great collection of Nikkors especially the 55/1.2 that is one of the greatest lenses ever made by Nikon. You could've included some Pics by these lenses.

Nice tip on the 20mm f2.8 AF lens. It's the only wide angle lens I use to photograph people, as it just won't distort. Funny coincidence that I also keep my Nikkor 55/1.2 lens mated to my old Big F body. They were made for each other.

Thanks for the video, great stuff. I love a guy with 100% commitment - love the camera tattoo! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Used many of these lenses back in the 1970s on Nikon F's, except the f1.2...never got my hands on one, sadly. I still have two 55mm f2.8 macros and even though I now shoot on a D850 body, that's the lens that is always mounted by default. Unbelievably sharp, my favourite Nikkor of all time.

what a great collection of lenses! nikon has a great range of lenses!

Your video's are outstanding, so well prepared and presented and so very informative.

Terrific video, Travis.

Watched your video this morning and subscribed to your channel. I am 67 and disabled but I still shoot a lot of photography. I shoot a Fujifilm XT3 with manual focus lens. I do a lot of film photography in black and white. I have a Nikon film camera and two Rollie’s , a Canon film camera and five Polaroid.

Thanks for sharing your lens collection with us. I, too, love old Nikon glass. However, when I purchased mine, they were not old and they were not at bargain prices. Never had the 35mm f/2.8, however, the 35mm f/2 was the first lens I purchased for the Nikon F that I was shooting in the late 1960s. The 85mm f/1.8 was the second lens I purchased for my Nikon F. In 2002, I upgraded to the 85mm f/1.4 AF. The 16mm f/2.8 fisheye was my widest lens until I purchased the Nikkor 14mm f/2.8 AF. I prefer manual focus lenses. However, the 50mm f/1.4 AF lens is one of only three autofocus prime lenses I own. The 14mm f/2.8 and the 85mm f/1.4 are the other two. The 55mm f/3.5 macro and the 105mm f/2.8 macro are two of my sharpest lenses. I have never owned or used a 135mm f/2.8 lens. However, I do own and use the 135mm f/3.5 AIS and the 135mm f/2 AIS. Once I buy a Nikon lens for my Nikon cameras, I usually keep them. When I upgrade a lens, I keep the older version as a backup. The Nikkor 43-86mm Zoom f.3.5 AI is the only Nikkor lens I have purchased and sold. The image quality of that zoom was so bad that I did not purchase another zoom for decades.

Excellent information, very helpful. The Nikon lineup stands up to the test of time. Canon lenses are only useful up to the EF series, since the FD lenses need a converter to work and the EF lenses are not expensive except for the L glass (which is worth the price). So the old Nikon F glass is a world class bargain. I have half of the lenses in your collection, and I plan to add some more.

Love old nikkor glass. I have the nikkor Q 135 2.8 as well but i converted it to use on my D700 myself. i also have the auto H 50mm f/2, and the 50mm 1.4Ai. They're all really great lenses for a very inexpensive price.

Recently I owned a 105 f2.5 and a 135 f2.8. They are so sharp!

I use 4 Nikkor lenses. 24mm f2. 8, 50mm f1.4, 55mm 2.8 Micro and a 105mm f2. 5. The cameras I use are a Nikon FE, an F2 a and a Nikon D300s. I also have a Chinese Af Huongnu 35mm f2 which I use on my D300s as it is equivalent to a 50mm on the apsc sensor. All the above are just toys compared to my 1957 Yashica Mat with the 75mm Lumaxar f3.5 lens which makes it so easy for me to make big black and white darkroom enlargements from Kodak Trix and Rodinal at 1 to 25 dilution for 9 minutes. I use a condenser enlarger using a Schneider 100mm f4. 5 Componon S lens. I use Tri x 35mm film with the Nikons and develop with Rodinal 1 to 25 9 minutes and print through a Schneider Componon S 50mm 2.8 lens. I hope my information may be helpful to anyone starting out with film. Thanks for the video, good luck on your film journey.

I use primarily H series Pre AI Nikkor. I use them on an F2 and D600. I converted them to AI with a file. LOVE Nikon!

Great video thanks! I'm waiting for the next...

Good stuff. I have a great collection of Nikon 'vintage' glass. The great side of them is I can always sell them for what I (over)paid for them, not that I ever will. Sorry for your 105 DC loss ;-(

I love using Pre-ai lenses.. They are amazingly well built, all metal and glass.. I use them on my Nikon F2, Nikkormat FTN and Nikon F4. The F4 is one amazing camera, it takes every lens ever made by Nikon, from Pre-Ai right up to the modern G lens crap 😁 (only in Program and Shutter Priority of course).

However, I do use the F4 regularly, and I don't have the model with battery grip, so that knocks about 500g off, at least. Moreover, the F4 weighs about the same as my D700, so I've gotten used to carrying a heavier camera with me.

great vids glad you're out there very helpful

Thank you for your videos. I am glad that I subscribed!

darn, you sold the 55mm f2.8 micro. I kept mine for all these years. Super super sharp in deed, Nikon still use that as a reference lens nowadays. I also have the 135mm f2 DC its slightly better than the 105mm

I own 46 manual focus Nikon lenses, including 23 pre-AI lenses, all but two of which have the Nikon AI conversion ring attached. That was important to me when I began this adventure because I was shooting on the D700 which will not mount pre-AI lenses. I subsequently bought the Df so can now use any Nikkor lens. Perhaps people who visit this video are aware of a thread I started on Fred Miranda's excellent photography website that carries the title Manual Focus Nikon Glass. That thread will celebrate its 13th anniversary later this month. These lenses are amazing and clearly much loved by many people, whether shooting with film, digital, Nikon or other cameras using adapters. If you haven't already, give them a try. Turning the focusing ring completely changes one's relationship with photography...

Excellent video👍👍

Same here I still glad that I kept my old Nikkor lens Manual focus on my digital models, both DSLR, and Mirrorless, now all I need is the 180mm Nikkor and I will go to heaven as completely my Nikon Line, My first Nikon was the Nikkormat Ftn with a 50mm F2.0 as I was so please with that lens that I got 2 more of the 50mm F/2.0, then got the 35mm F2.8 & 24mm F2.8, and then 135mm 3.5 which I found that lens very SHARP than the 2.8 as that was my Portrait Lens, and then got the 105mm F2.5, and then later during working at the camera store for 33 years I got the 20mm F3.5, & 28mm 3.5 as I use it on my digital models as the optics are still peak focusing well! I had a 135 F2.8 & the 50mm F1.1.4 as the 135mm was to heavy, and not sharp so I gave it to a friend, and that is the lens that you have, and showing on your video. As for the 50mm F1.1.4 HATED IT, Not sharp, and very low contrast... And last I do have a Nikkor lens that some people do not like it, as I do and it is still sharp, in which it is the 43~86mm zoom as I have 2 models one with AI mount for my digital's, and the standard one for my film camera. Yea I know But Alex you will get flare - And I will say to them, NOT IF YOU HAVE A LENS SHADE ON IT. As I am happy with the lenses , and my Nikon Bodies- F F2's FM EL Nikkormats, F100, and my Digitals. So I am happy until I move up to AF Nikkors as I got a 24-50mm, & 24-120mm, and 28-85mm AF Nikkors. Now I do have 2 Tokina's for the DX AF Digital as I got the Nikon D2Xs, and my Fuji S3Pro, and S5Pro along with my XPro1, and XE1 model, So with using digitals I still use my old Manual Nikkors as they were all AI Convert. And one final thought if your like me, and WANT TO PROTECT your gear - Then get some Silica Gel that is reheat able, not that small packet that you find when you buy a lens, this is a useful item, just place them in your oven for 30-40minutes, and that red dot goes back to blue dot, and this will prevent from Mold, and Fungus. Hey you pay Now, and then Pay Later...

How do you find manual focusing on the f100?... I have some good manual lenses, and I was wanting to get a manual 35mm nikon to use them. But I also would like an F100

Great video Travis ! What do you think about the 135 2.8 Q vs 135 2.8 AI ? I’m looking for a 135 for my F and F2A

Great video mate, you have given me the idea to go to secondhand stores on the hunt for Nikon Lenses. Geez lenses over where you are, are dirt cheap whereas here in Australia these things are more expensive, but it won’t stop me from looking.

Can you use non ai lenses on a f3 if you use a hand held spot meter?

Late to the party here so I doubt you'll see this, but I was wondering if you had any views on flash units for your F3? Is it more trouble than its worth given the dodgy shoe mount? Thanks!

Man you have snagged some bargains, I love old nikon glass and it goes for loads more on ebay, unless very lucky.

I would listen to anyone who show his love for his art ( camera tattoo). It’s a journey. I am currently wondering through my manual prime forest having left my Zoom valley behind.

Love this video. I've got the 85mm F1.8d but wierdly my fave lenses an the moment are an old sigma 24mm af and the Nikon 35mm F1.8 afs DX - I use them on a D700 body and I suck up the vignetting of the DX lens. I like to think that even though I'm not shooting film, I am in my own way adopting the 'Beardy Dude' low cost, contraian philosopy. Can you set the apertures for manual mode when that 135mm Q lens is mounted on a digital body so you could use it with a Sekonic? PS - You sold a 105 DC to fund a Pentax that doesn't work - I think I'm gonna cry! Keep rolling Beardy Dude - Luv your style & your videos. Regards, Timmy (Southampton U.K.)

I use old glass on a D700, no problems. You just use the aperture ring in manual and aperture priority auto. You have to tell the camera via the menu the lens max. aperture's fitted. I also like using 70's 80's Tamron Adaptall lenses. Still very cheap on EBay. They have interchangeable mounts (not adaptors) and the SP range are as good as Nikon. The prices are starting to creep up because the mirrorless and video guys have wised up to them.

Oh yeah.. Don't put a Pre AI lens on a modern body or a body with an AI tab. It may damage the tab. Some Pre AI have been modified either officially by Nikon or a DIY job. which are Okay. If anyone's not sure, just do some googling on Nikon AI and pre AI lenses.

non-AI lenses can be used on digital bodies, you just have to store the max aperture for each manual lens. maybe the less expensive bodies don't have this feature. unless i am missing something...

No, you cant use non AI lenses on a digital Nikon body.they dont have the right aperture ring to connect properly with the little metering tab which you'll damage if you try and mount a non AI lens.some of the last film cameras had a little button you could press to flip the AI tab out the way so you could mount non AI lenses safely, but they wont meter and you have to use the stop down metering method to determine your exposure. AI and AI-s lenses however will mount with no issues, you just have to go into your camera's menu, look for non CPU lens data..go into that and add the specs for your lens and you'll be good to go, you just have add the focal length of the lens to the info, then set the aperture ring to the lenses smallest aperture and you're good to go.

where did you get the 35mm for $25? I want to get one

Great Video Travis, I love the old Nikkor Glass ....Look out for a 5.8cm 1.4 that one is very cool it works well for portraits and is super sharp at about f8. Have you ever had a 2.1cm mirror lock lens with a finder ? I have always wanted one

Hello can i put my 52mm f 2.0 NAI lens on my nikon fm2?

i realized my error in selling older lenses and am mixing old with new. question we must ask ourselves, "are we making art or a documentary?". sometimes we want pixel-peeping sharpness, but is it always worth the loss of color and micro-contrast? they all have personalities, especially ones with fewer elements! just bought a Nikkor 85 f1.4D instead of a Sigma ART; talk about personality!!

Great video - certainly helps me work out what I would want to own if I go back to Nikon film.

where can I see your film work

Non ai lenses will not fit onto the later Nikon Bodies without being altered. They will work on the Nikon FM and the old Nikon F.

selling the DC a mistakeee, its the only auotfocus lens i want lol, still manual yet high/future tech with the dc

I'm considering the Nikon AF Zoom-NIKKOR 80-200mm f/2.8D ED for use on a film camera. It's an amazing lens both in build and optics, but none of the videos I've watched reviewing it mentions how well the manual focusing is on it. It has an aperture ring so it will work with film cameras. Have you tried this lens? Thanks

Nikon 75-150mm F3.5 Series E is one of them lenses you get for nothing, and it`s a stellar performer. In fact, it might be one of the most overlooked lenses from their back catalogue. Wicked sharp, great bokeh. Here we have a push/pull zoom lens with great OOF rendering, fixed aperture range, and it covers a (to me) nice focal range. The build quality is fantastic. Makes new Nikkors look rather toyish. It`s a must-have. Kind regards from a Nikon nerd.

I know only the 75-150mm of that series, but I pick up on the praise the line-up gets. I believe they made five or seven lenses as E-series, and they were supposed to have Nikkor glas quality and be of a less pro build. Well, looking at it today.. the build quality is quite high. On the 75-150mm only the aperture ring is made of plastic as an example. Try and look up the series. You have the Nikkor "1001 Nights" tales, those are very interesting and they can still be found on the internet with a little searching, and then there`s the "mir site" if you want to have a closer look at it all, mostly the vintage Nikon stuff. The 100mm 2.8 Series E has a good reputation too, but I guess it`s too long already for you. Unless this is about weight, I`d recommend looking at some of the older Nikkors. If you go pre-ai, but ai-converted, you still get them cheap. I don`t know the camera you use, and maybe you don`t need the lens to be converted. If it`s not so much about money, the 28mm f2.8 ai-s with MFD of 20 cm is also a cheap solution for a highly versatile wide-angle, and if weight isn`t an issue either, the 28mm f2 ai is a gem. Incredible sharpness, and it handles bright light sources like a true champ. And sorry.. this reply got way too long. The 35mm f2 ai-s is also a great lens, and the f1.4 version is just a beast. If you want something light-weight and dirt-cheap, I am sure the Series E line-up will do the trick for you. If you do pre-ai, you have an extremely high level of craftsmanship, and you got a longer focus throw as well. And those lenses too are cheap. Oh.. there are so many good lenses in their back catalogue :)

@heinechristiansen3818

7 жыл бұрын

.. one more thing: mostly, except for coatings and sometimes the shape and numbers of the aperture blades, ai and ai-s lenses are identical. What you typically get with an ai lens is a longer focus throw, maybe a bit stiffer focus action too, and maybe no build-in hood. Ai lenses often go cheaper than ai-s lenses, and there is no reason not to pick an ai lens over an ai-s equivalent. Often the build quality is better on the ai lens. With the ai-s lenses you begin to feel the cost cutting setting in. Happy hunting for used lenses :)

I know that lens! I`ve shot it for many years now. Please let me share my thoughts.. The Micro Nikkor 55mm 2.8 is very sharp wide open. I never hesitate to use it, and around f5.6 you really can`t ask for more in sharpness. With 290 grams on it`s back, doing 1:2 magnification, lens elements sitting deeply recessed (nice on those rainy as also sunny days), 52mm filter thread, fast film.. well, it`s a really fun universal walk-around lens. Couple it with the PK-13 extension ring and fx. a Nikon ES-1 slide adapter, and you have a fun tool for copy work and/or creative photography. The F2.8 55mm micro is one of the legends in the Nikkor line-up. Highly versatile. I`m not mistaken, they still make it today as one of their few mf lens offerings. On the used market you get it for little cash compared to the bang it gives you. It being prone to oil on the aperture blades is more or less a myth. A lot of lenses suffer from that "problem" sooner or later. That would be a more accurate way to put it. Also, I`ve never had issues with my copy, and it`s a beater. Having a lens cleaned now and then is part of the experience in photography. Try to store lenses properly, and it might tone down those lens issues. If I should keep only one lens, it might be this one. I`d miss a fast 50 or 58, but I need the close-up capabilities the 55mm gives me. It does everything from slide copy work to general photography. It`s a great tool for image making.

You might look in the philosophy section of the Nikon site. A lens designer last year called attention to the lens, I think the 3.5. Said its resolution was approaching theoretical limit. A little vague, but you get the picture. I have the variants of this lens, including the Af. First one I bought had a stiff focus ring, so I got another. Maybe one day I'll try to service it. Apparently, it is about the grease and there should be a service manual.

What about an F100? I know they won't meter, but won' simply trying to mount them cause damage?
