By [NR] admin | Published: August 25, 2008
The Rarest Nikon Rangefinder Lens: Nikon Rangefinder 1000/6.3 for US $60,000.00 
“According to Bob Rotoloni, founder of the Nikon Historical Society and author of the superlative “The Complete Nikon Rangefinder Book,” the BLACK  1000/6.3 is THE RAREST production Nikon Rangefinder Lens.  FIVE are known!   That makes the stereo Nikkor look rather plentiful.”

Update: CC took the site down. Somebody just lost their job today. I wonder if all those pre-orders will be valid. I think they may cancel them all. This is “unfair competitive advantage” or whatever the legal term is and as I said before other retailers will be pissed. The link is long gone, but here is a detailed snapshot: http://flickr.com/photos/nikonrumors/. The detailed specs can also be found here and the pictures are here.


I told you it will be fun!
