Several readers asked me if I have a high resolution image of the Nikon limited edition f/1.4 lens set for use as a desktop background or a screensaver. Here is a 2187x1753 version of the image coming directly from the person who took the photograph (credit: Nikon Corp):

NICE!!!
what i really need is to have those lenses on my ACTUAL DESK
and not just an image on the desktop!!
+1 to that
in full rez and 3d?
admin any chance to have boxed lenses for grabs
Maybe in the next giveaway?
Dream on, maybe we’ll get it when NR weekly news reaches #999999999
I wish
I think this limited edition kit will not make it to the US. What I will have is a quick review of the new 35mm f/1.4 lens in the next few weeks.
and then you’ll give away the lens right???
Hate to break it to you all, but that is not a picture, that is a digital mockup. Look at the latches, the perspective is WAY off and the lighting is not right. Looks like a mockup used to promote it before it becomes a reality.
This picture is shopped, I can tell from the pixels and from having seen a few shops in my day.
Haha.
Yeah, for over $6,500 I’d really hope that nikon paper says something a little more than “Lorem Ipsum…”
But for that price, I’d be disappointed to learn I’m not getting an illuminated codex or scroll from Nikon’s scriptorium. Gold leaf and richly pigmented reds should be a mainstay of such a text.
(and yes, even considering the ‘savings’ of the package deal… as if I’m you’ll end up with more money rather than less for buying it… Okay, maybe if you’re a successful wedding or portrait photographer.)
“Lorem Ipsum” text was put instead as final words from Nikon executives were not ready yet at the shooting moment.
Don’t be so naïve…..
Hello
I used a 28mm focal length to shoot this box, just to give more “dynamism” to the product; leading to unavoidable distortions of course but not so tremendous…..
Of course it’s photoshopped! Bring me something that’s not photoshopped today!!
Still laughing……
blah! should have shot it @ 1.4 then maybe i’ll use it on my desktop.
wow
nr i raising the bar off ine art
Got one of the D800?
Really? Sad.
Put it on your monitor, and every morning pray like this: “Oh Good Spirit of Nikon! I will remember day of birth of my wife and kids – how many of them, BTW? I will give everybody a goodnight kiss, including my dog! Just give IT TO ME! Oh Good Spirit of Nikon, I will be very good person, I wil never drink beer!” You gonna see what happened!
Yes Master!
I will use it as my background.
-”by your command”
Nice, ‘lorem ipsum’ text on the booklet.
would have been funnier if they had also used such text on the lenses.
Clearly it’s the Greece version of the box.
PERSONALLY SINCE I WAITED FOR A D 700s, THEN FOR A D800; AND SINCE I M NOT GETTING NONE OF THOSE BEFORE SUMMER AT LEAST …..I STICK WITH MY CHEAPER STURDYER AND I THINK BETTER 28 F 1.4& A.I.S PRIMES…PRICES ARE TO HIGH FOR PLASTIC ,I THINK ,I MIGHT WAIT 2 MORE YEARS,THAT THE PRICE GOES DOWN!!!!!!!!!
Maybe, while you wait, you can spend some of that money on a keyboard with capslock and shift buttons that work.
just sayin’…
+1
+1 to that! Snap!
LMAO.
Ummm… On what planet is the 28mm f/1.4 AI-S cheaper?
Very nice!
What I noticed though, shouldn’t they all have the new rear caps?
My copy of the 35mm f1.4G comes with the new F mount rear cap..
no thanks i will use one of my photos
Has anyone actually seen a website in Belgium, Sweden or anywhere that has this limited edition boxset for sale ?
I’m starting to think it’s a fake.
Lorem ipsum was part of a passage from Cicero, in his De finibus bonorum et malorum, a treatise on the theory of ethics written in 45 BC. The original reads, Neque porro quisquam est qui doLOREM IPSUM quia dolor sit amet, consectetur, adipisci velit . . .
The (apt) translation:
“There is no one who loves pain itself, who seeks after it and wants to have it, simply because it is pain . . .”.
If you don’t seek pain, you wouldn’t want a screen capture of 3 expensive lenses you will likely never be able to own!
Mmmmmm, lens pr0n.
I love how they dont include the awful 50/1.4G here. Nikon has no illusion that awful lens belongs with 24, 35 and 85.
