With all the 105mm talk, I must post this photo, there are several 105mm 2.5 in many variations, starting with Rangefinder, of which two LTMs are shown here, the non-ai, ai and ais, plus the 1:4 micros witch are excellent, a regular and a bellows mount are shown here.

All of them are great lenses.


Great family portrait! I always wanted a bellows-mount 105 to go with my PB-4. Looks like you need to locate a UV-Nikkor 105/4.5 to complete the set! Though always rare, they used to be not much sought-after and could be had for about what they went for new, but are now WAY more expensive alas.


Grant, I am done buying old Nikkors, have all the common ones as those are true bargains - more than 100 so far, but the rare ones are way to pricey for my taste.

My only claim to lucky fame is this prototype lens, the only copy known so far in the world. (I keep posting it ). The first one is 523001, known from old publications but its whereabouts are a mistery, this is the second serial number and only one in the prototype series that has been found.
