Nikon Micro-Nikkor-P Auto 55mm f/3.5 - Nikon F Mount

The Micro-Nikkor-P Auto 55mm f/3.5 is a vintage manual focus macro lens renowned for its exceptional sharpness and flat field of focus. It typically offers a 1:2 magnification ratio, which can be extended to 1:1 with the use of the M2 or PK-13 extension tubes. The 'P' designation indicates a five-element optical design, and this lens is frequently sought after for both film use and digital adaptation due to its high resolving power. Verify if the lens has been 'AI-converted' to ensure safety when mounting on modern Nikon DSLRs. We check the long-throw focus helicoid for smooth, even resistance, which is critical for precise macro work. SDS inspects the aperture for oil contamination and checks the front and rear elements for any cleaning marks or scratches that could affect image quality. Confirm the diaphragm stops down correctly during exposure.
