Nikkor 35mm f/2.8 S non-AI

Nikkor 35mm f/2.8 S non-AI (1962-'74)
This sample circa '71.







Filter size: 52mm
Close focus: 1 foot/0.3 meters
Aperture range: f/2.8 - f/16
Aperture blades: 6
Depth of field scale for f/4, f/8 - f/16, IR index.
Design: 7 elements in 6 groups

Comments: Note that the lens labeled 3.5cm is a different (and much rarer) lens with 7 elements in 5 groups. It is some what longer but otherwise looks similar. This one is a nice little lens.

The earlier version has a ribbed aperture ring.



The later Nippon Kogaku and Nikon versions have a scalloped aperture ring.



Oddly there were never C or K versions of this lens. Here are the two versions side-by-side:



Here are the other non-perspective control Nikon non-AI 35mm lenses: 35mm f/1.4, f/2, f/2.8, and 3.5cm
