Wow, what a lens! Extremely sharp, no CA, great bokeh and colours, what's not to like?
I have been thinking of getting the 200mm Nikkor of this vintage as it is quite common and quite cheap, I think you just persuaded me to get one and also this 250 if I see one!

Thanks Ian,from the little I have used since adapting this lens- I am impressed with its color, sharpness and bokeh.
This is a Nikon Rangefinder lens made to be used with with a reflex housing.The 200mm in this vintage cannot be common, because they did not make one-hence you will not find one . The next one shorter/down they made for the Rangefinder was the 180mm f2.5.
Cheerio

Ah, I see! I thought this was an early F mount lens, thanks for the correction. The Nikkor-Q 200 I refer to is the early F mount one.

Excellent job on that conversion btw.
I have often bid on the Photosonics lenses but failed every time.
They had excellent stuff, Schneiders and these Nikons in particular.

Very nice of Luis, it was pretty straight forward once I determined where to cut.
You should definately get one . I saw one from the same seller-on ebay.
Thanks

What is photosonics?
Did you take any pics of your conversion process? As an avid hacker of old optics, I would love to see what you did!
Also, does anyone know if the Nikkor-Q 200 I am interested in has IQ as good as this 250?

The Photosonics web page.
HerE.
The link/tab that goes into high speed cameras will give you a lot of information.
My "not very detailed" adaptation is
http://forum.mflenses.com/nikkor-q-14-f-25cm-nippon-kogaku-japan-t42276.html
I have no idea how they would compare, IQ wise. They might both be geniuses
