Nikkor Micro 37mm f/2.4 lens patent for Nikon’s mirrorless cameras
Another Nikon patent (2012-220828) for a new Micro (macro) 37mm f/2.4 lens designed for 1″ sensor (Nikon 1 mirrorless cameras) was recently filed in Japan:
- Focal length: 37.1mm
- Aperture: 2.40
- Angle of view (2ω): 24.7°
- Image height: 8.18mm
- Lens length 70.20mm

Nikon 1 super telephoto zoom, macro and wide-angle zoom lens prototypes
Nikon 1 macro, wide-angle zoom and normal prime lens prototypes
