Nikkor 10.5cm PC f2.5 lens - reputation?

You'd want to be using an external vf for the 105 probably anyhow.

I have the sonnar version of the F mount. It's a great lens.

I prefer the 8.5cm f/2 of which I have both he LTM and s-mount versions.

... especially the copy of that lens Jon has but from memory he did not want to sell it to me ... 😀

Ha, I managed to finally get a black LTM version which oddly enough Rotoloni didn't mention in his book.

Definitely not for sale 😀

I prefer the smaller and lighter 8.5cm f2, but S-mount Nikkor-P 10.5cm f2.5s are so cheap these days that I'm thinking of picking up another one. If one pops up for the right price, I'll grab it!
