Nikkor 24mm 2.8

[memetph]

I want to buy this lens to use it on an A7 ( MF of course ! )
There are the Ai/Ais versions which are MF lenses but also the AF D. This lens is optically identical and it is easy to find in good condition.
I supposed that the manual focusing of this more recent version is not as good but is it good enough ?

I have the 35/2 af-d and the mf ai-s 24/2.8 (for sale if you are interested). The focusing is better on the 24, the focus throw is actaly longer on the 35, but the ring has no resistance due to the fact it must be turned by the af motor of the body i guess, i never had the 28/2.8 afd though so i cannot say it s the same as the 35.

The AIS should be good enough for most, I don't use mine all that much because I seem to always grab something else, like my Fuji 28/1.9
