Re: Manual Focus Nikon Glass


So, this one came in, my seventh 55 1.2. Glass is perfect, not a pec of dust, so is aperture and focusing. This is the first variation of the design.

Focusing ring has a little tiny wear on edges, quickly fixed by industrial marker.

Mounted lens on a cheap Z adapter and took a test series, noticing the lens did not reach infinity and was a tad softer on the right side. Just a little bit of both. Will have to buy the Rayqual as George recommends.

Sample at 1.2 with cheap adapter, full sizes in Flickr

Placed lens on FTZ and it did reach infinity just fine, plus sharpness became even across the frame. This is actually quite good performance at 1.2 by any standard. (of mine )

These lenses have a sharp center at 1.2 and become sharp for the complete frame at 4.0, by any 24mp standard.
