Actually, my favorite part of the script writing for these. It's a riff on the running joke that Americans will use any unit of measure that isn't metric.

I have the AIS 55mm Micro F 2.8. Bought it at a yard sale years ago for $75 along with a 2x converter. Didn't shoot it for years and when i did finally. Wow how sharp this lens is now it lives on my F3.

@@DavidHancock Kind of funny I didn’t want yet another 50. Bought it because it was in such good condition and well $75 seemed to good to pass up for both. Never even put it on my camera for a few years. Now my other fifties don’t see the light of day

Excellent review and examples. Very excited to use this lens, just purchased a slightly newer non-Ai version(K series I believe it is called).

This looks like a wonderful walk around lens paired with the Nikon Z5. But unfortunately this lens is hard to come by in my area.

It would definitely pair well with a Z5, especially with a macro focusing adapter.

Hi, was this lens tested for film negative scans via DSLR + macro lens?
@DavidHancock Жыл бұрын
I didn't do that, but it would probably be a good option for that.

Hi, nice review--thank you! Did you test the AI or pre-AI version? And do you know if performance is similar on both?
