Weekly Nikon news flash #723

→ A rare Nikon NIKKOR 13mm f/5.6 AI-S lens is up for auction at the 42 Leitz Photographica Auction and is expected to sell for an estimated €60,000 – €70,000 (starting price: €30,000). Check out also the rare Leica cameras. Here is the 13mm f/5.6 lens description:

“AI-S version, in near-mint condition, with perfect optics, with caps, case, with matching caps, L1Bc filter. The Nikon 13mm is the world’s widest non-distorting professional SLR lens ever made, by anyone, in any format. It allows to get closer to any subject, stretches distances and creates images from perspectives otherwise unimaginable. Only about 350 were made in 22 years (1976-1998), and only to special order. The lens is rarely appearing on the market.”
