Nikon Nikkor 28mm f/3.5 - Nikon F Mount

The Nikon Nikkor 28mm f/3.5 is a classic wide-angle manual focus lens available in various iterations, including Pre-AI, AI, and AI-S. Known for its excellent flare resistance and high contrast, it utilizes a simple but effective optical design that remains sharp across the frame. Its compact size and 52mm filter thread make it a practical companion for Nikon FM or FE series film cameras, as well as adapted digital bodies. Check the aperture ring for smooth movement and the blades for any signs of oil. We verify that the focus helicoid is not dry or stiff, a common trait in vintage lenses that have not been serviced. SDS examines the glass for scratches or coating loss and confirms that the lens mount is true. For non-AI versions, ensure compatibility with your camera body to avoid damaging the aperture coupling lever.
