Yes, it's one of only two Nikonos lenses that works in air.
Adapted to NEX, works really well, the knob focus is a joy to use.

Strange lens. Never seen one like that. But I like what I see in terms of contrast and sharpness.
I don't see any aperture ring. It's an f/4 only or you can adjust the diaphragm with one of those knobs?
PS
Nice keyboard _________________ Moderator Himself |

It's for the Nikonos underwater SLR. Black knob controls aperture, silver is focus.
Keyboard is an old IBM one, much nicer to type on than a modern one. Needs a good clean though! _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |

Hi,
Did you buy that adapter or is it a DIY mount? I guess the 35mm lens would be interesting to test as well.

The 35mm is nice, I used it on film on a Nikonos IV-A.
It has some swirl in the bokeh wide open.
The largest problem was flare.
it gave a large flare patch the shape of the aperture in the middle of the frame, likely due to the large flat front element, so try to find a hood that will fit and keep your back to the sun / bright areas.

The lens just happened to be the precise right diameter to fit into/onto a NEX extension tube so it was the easiest possible DIY job.
The 35 does sound interesting, it's not cheap though, neither is this 80mm either. _________________ I don't care who designed it, who made it or what country it comes from - I just enjoy using it! |
