Nikkor 50mm f/2.0
A lens inherited
from the 50mm f2.0 Nikkor-H. One of the most versatile among all interchangeable
Nikkor interchangeable lenses. It weighs merely 220gms. Aberration had been well
corrected to negligible level. It is famed for its high resolution and outstanding
color rendition. Besides being an ideal general purpose lens, it is equally useful
in close up utilizing a variety of close-up attachments and other close focus accessories.
But more importantly, this lens is an AI (Automatic Indexing) Nikkor optic. The feature
incorporated with an enhanced lens mount which enables a new series of Nikon SLR
camera bodies to accept a new range of Nikkor lenses which have a updated automatic
mechanism for full aperture metering. It signified paramount of an era of the best
for mechanical engineering in camera design, pushing designers' imagination and creativity
to the limit during that period the rocking seventies. It marked the birth of the
2nd generation professional Nikon SLR cameras after the original Nikon F, that accept the AI
mount as an integral part of the system, This is the Nikon F2.
