Nikon F Eye-Level with Four Nikkors

[farlymac]

Had some time to kill while the vehicle was in the shop, so I brought along my meter less Nikon F Eye-Level, and four non-AI lenses: Nikkor-N 1:2/ 28mm; Nikkor–S 1:2.8/35mm; Nikkor 50mm/1:1.4; and Nikkor-P 1:2.5/105mm. Film used was Kodak Tri-X 400 exposed at 200 ISO, and pull processed. Sunny-16 exposure calculation method.

Handsome set! I have the Nikkor-NC 24/2.8 instead of the 28; and also an early Nikkor-S 5cm f2 matched to my 1959 F.

Here's a shot with my plain-prism F and the 24/2.8 pre-AI Nikkor-N. Sunny-16 guesstimate with HP5+ @320. Those old Nikons just keep plugging away!

I've got a 2.8/24 also, Lynn, but it's in dire need of a lube, so I haven't been using it. Looks like it will take the place of the 2/28.

Beautiful tool kit!

Thanks. It all fits in a small Domke bag quite nicely.
