Used Nikkor-S 35mm f/2.8 - U8

The Nikkor-S 35mm f/2.8 is one of Nikon's earliest wide-angle lens designs for the F-mount system, released in 1959 shortly after the original Nikon F camera. Its 7-element, 5-group optical construction and single-coated glass produce a lower-contrast, smooth tonal rendering distinct from later multicoated optics, giving it a distinctive vintage character well suited to black-and-white and expressive photography. Built entirely of metal with no autofocus motor, the lens offers a compact, lightweight, and mechanically simple shooting experience that remains fully functional on modern mirrorless cameras via F-mount adapters. A historically significant and highly collectible lens among Nikon enthusiasts, it delivers a classic optical character prized by photographers who appreciate the creative imperfections of early Nikkor glass.
