Nikkor 662539 224421658 2008-07-08T19:47:51Z Motorrad-67 3988158 /* Lenses for Nikon F-mount */ '''Nikkor''' is the brand of lenses produced by [[Nikon|Nikon Corporation]], including camera lenses for the [[Nikon F-mount]]. The Nikkor brand was introduced by Nippon Kogaku K.K. (Nikon's original corporate name) in 1932. Nikon originally reserved the Nikkor designation for its highest-quality imaging optics, but in recent history almost all Nikon lenses are so branded. Notable Nikkor branded optics have included: * [[Nikon F-mount|F-mount]] lenses for [[135 film|35mm]] [[Single-lens reflex camera|SLR]] and [[DSLR]] photography. * Lenses for [[Bronica]] and [[Plaubel Makina]] [[medium format camera]]s. * Lenses for Nikon S-series and [[Leica Camera|Leica]] [[Rangefinder camera|rangefinder]] cameras * Amphibious lenses for [[Nikonos]] underwater cameras * Lenses for [[large format]] photography. * EL-Nikkor photographic [[enlarger]] lenses. * The lens of [[Canon Inc.|Canon]]'s first or second camera, the "[http://www.mir.com.my/rb/photography/companies/nikon/htmls/nikon_canon.htm Hanza Canon]." * [[Microscope]] objectives. * Industrial lenses, including lenses in support of the Japanese war effort during [[World War II]]. Currently the most actively developed and marketed Nikkor lenses are Nikon's [[F-mount]] photographic lenses. These lenses are designed to cover the 24x36mm area of [[135 film]] and the [[Nikon FX format]], or in the case of "DX" designated lenses, the 16x24mm area of the [[Nikon DX format]]. =Products= {{listdev}} ==Lenses for Nikon F-mount== [[image:35mmPC500.jpg|thumb|left|PC-Nikkor 35mm {{f/}}3.5 [[Nikon F-mount|F-mount]] perspective-control lens]] [[Image:Lens_Nikkor_50mm.jpg|thumb|Nikkor 50mm {{f/}}1.8 lens for the Nikon F-mount.]] Nikkors constitute the majority of lenses available for the [[Nikon F-mount]], which is itself the largest system of interchangeable flange-mount photographic lenses in history. These lenses are designed for the [[135 film|135]] (35mm) and [[Nikon DX format|Nikon DX]] formats. Over 400 different F-mount Nikkor models are known to exist. * See [[Nikon F-mount#Nikkor|Nikon F-mount → Nikkor]] <br clear="all"> ==Lenses dedicated for other cameras== {{list-dev}} Note: The letter '''U, B, T, Q, P, H, S, O, N,''' or '''D''' immediately after the "Nikkor" name designates the number of elements in the design &mdash; Uns (1), Bini (2), Tres (3), Quatour (4), Pente (5), Hex (6), Septem (7), Octo (8), Novem (9), or Decem (10). <div style="float:left; width:48%;"> ===Nikon "S" [[rangefinder camera|rangefinder]]=== * 21mm {{f/}}4 Nikkor-O * 25mm {{f/}}W-4.0 Nikkor * 28mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor * 35mm {{f/}}1.8 W-Nikkor * 35mm {{f/}}2.5 W-Nikkor * 35mm {{f/}}3.5 W-Nikkor * 50mm {{f/}}1.1 Nikkor-N * 50mm {{f/}}1.4 Nikkor-S * 50mm {{f/}}2.0 Nikkor-H * 50mm {{f/}}3.5 Micro-Nikkor (close focus) * 85mm {{f/}}1.5 Nikkor-S * 85mm {{f/}}2.0 Nikkor-P * 105mm {{f/}}2.5 Nikkor-P * 105mm {{f/}}4.0 Nikkor-P * 135mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-Q * 135mm {{f/}}4.0 Nikkor * 180mm {{f/}}2.5 Nikkor * 250mm {{f/}}4 Nikkor-Q ===[[Bronica|Zenza Bronica]] [[Single-lens reflex|SLR]]=== * 40mm {{f/}}4 Nikkor-D * 50mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-H * 50mm {{f/}}2.8 Nikkor-O * 75mm {{f/}}2.8 Nikkor-P * 75mm {{f/}}2.8 Nikkor-HC * 105mm {{f/}}3.5LS Nikkor-Q * 135mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-Q * 200mm {{f/}}4 Nikkor-P (two versions) * 300mm f/5.6 Nikkor-PC * 400mm {{f/}}4.5 Nikkor-Q * 600mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-P * 800mm {{f/}}8 Nikkor-P * 1200mm {{f/}}11 Nikkor-P </div><div style="float:right; width:48%;"> ===[[Leica Camera|Leica]] "L" rangefinder=== * 35mm {{f/}}1.8 W-Nikkor * 35mm {{f/}}2.5 W-Nikkor * 50mm {{f/}}1.4 Nikkor-S * 50mm {{f/}}2 Nikkor-H * 50mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-Q * 85mm {{f/}}2 Nikkor-P * 105mm {{f/}}2.5 Nikkor-P * 135mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-Q * 135mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-P ===[[Plaubel Makina]]=== * 80mm {{f/|2.8|link=yes}} Nikkor (Makina 67/670) * 55mm {{f/}}4.5 Nikkor (Makina W67) ===Airesflex [[Twin-lens reflex camera|TLR]]=== * 7.5cm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-Q (taking lens) * 7.5cm {{f/}}3.2 View-Nikkor (viewing lens) ===Marshal [[Press camera|Press]]=== * 105mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-Q ===Hanza [[Canon (company)|Canon]] rangefinder=== * 50mm {{f/}}3.5 ===[[Nikonos]]=== {{main|Nikonos}} </div><br clear="all"> ==Lenses for large format photography== <div style="float:left; width:48%;"> ====Nikkor-SW==== 4-group wide-angle lens series, consisting of 6, 7, or 8 elements, with a 105° angle of view. * 65mm {{f/}}4 Nikkor-SW * 75mm {{f/}}4.5 Nikkor-SW * 90mm {{f/}}4.5 Nikkor-SW * 90mm {{f/}}8 Nikkor-SW * 120mm {{f/}}8 Nikkor-SW * 150mm {{f/}}8 Nikkor-SW ====Nikkor-W==== 6-element, 4-group series with angle of view of 70-73°. * 100mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 105mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 135mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 150mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 180mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 210mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 240mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 300mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-W * 360mm {{f/}}6.5 Nikkor-W ====Nikkor-M==== Compact, 4-element, 3-group series with a 52-57° angle of view. * 105mm {{f/}}3.5 Nikkor-M * 200mm {{f/}}8 Nikkor-M * 300mm {{f/}}9 Nikkor-M * 450mm {{f/}}9 Nikkor-M </div><div style="float:right; width:48%;"> ====Nikkor-AM==== 8-element, 4-group aphochromatic macro series with a 55° angle of view, optimized for 1:1 reproduction. * 120mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-AM ED * 210mm {{f/}}5.6 Nikkor-AM ED ====Nikkor-T==== Telephoto series.
