Nikkor 28mm f/2 N non-AI

Nikkor 28mm f/2 N non-AI (classic non-AI '70-'75, K non-AI '75-'77, AI '77-'81, AI-S '81-'05)
This sample circa '73.







Filter size: 52mm
Close focus distance: 1 foot or .3 meters. The AI-S version: 9 inches or 0.25 meters.
Aperture range: f/2 - f/22
Aperture blades: 7
Depth of field scale for f/4, f/8 - 16, plus IR focusing index.
Design: 9 elements in 7 groups

Has close range correction. All versions are multicoated whether or not they are engraved with a C. Older versions marked Nippon Kogaku are pretty rare, about 3000 made.



Also available in AI and AI-S versions.  The latest AI-S version focuses slightly closer, so it is probably the best option.

The lens looks quite similar to the 35mm f/1.4N and the newer 105mm f//2.5P with the black front:
