Comments:
This is the first Nikkor lens with close range correction or CRC. Mine has the factory AI conversion. It is a solid lens - it is actually a little too well-behaved and modern looking for my taste.

The Nippon Kogaku, Nikon, and C versions are all fairly common.





Here are the single and multi-coated versions side-by-side:


The latest K version has 7 aperture blades and stops down to f/22.
