Lets Play, Identify that Nikkor.

[B-9]

So,

I was wandering around that auction site, and put in a bid on one of those vaguely described listings, even the photos leave you guessing.

Lets play a game, call it "Name that Nikkor"

Here is a link to the auction I won,

Now whats your best guess as to what lens is included on the FT2?

Here's mine, I think it may be a Nikkor-O/C 35mm f2.0
Why? I have never seen a 50/2 with that style aperture knurling, the front barrel extends further than a 50/2 also... or does it? Haha

So how about it? Want to Play?

I'm with you. Not sure about the coating part, but don't know enough about early Nikkors. Though the date of the body is much newer.

Easy, it must be 35mm f/2 - among my period f/2 Nikkors only the 35mm has a 1/0.8/0.7m scale (the 28 is 0.8/0.6 engraved, the 50mm 1/0.9/0.8, anything shorter or longer will have even less or even more intermediate markings).

I'd vote 35/2 as well. The lens is not indexed properly -- I wonder if that happened before or after declaring "works great?"

And the small lever to free the ASA ring seems to be missing.

Good eye gents,

Haha, I did notice the lens was not indexed properly, so It is very ironic to claim it works great!

I did not however notice the little tab missing.. bummer 😉
