Used Nikon Zoom-Nikkor 28-45mm f4.5 - U9

The Nikon Zoom-Nikkor 28-45mm f/4.5 AI is a manual-focus wide-angle zoom lens for the Nikon F mount, historically significant as the first wide-angle zoom lens ever brought to production. Its 11-element, 7-group optical design delivers excellent image sharpness at all focal settings, with a constant f/4.5 aperture throughout the zoom range for consistent exposure control. A dual-ring design keeps the barrel's overall length fixed during both zooming and focusing, contributing to the lens's reputation for exceptional build quality, while the non-rotating 72mm filter ring adds practical convenience for polarizer use. Compatible with a broad range of Nikon F-mount film bodies from the F through the FA and N-series, this lens remains a well-regarded classic among collectors and photographers exploring vintage wide-to-normal zoom optics.
