Product Description
The Nikon 28mm f/3.5 AI is a compact, manual-focus wide-angle lens known for its sharp optics and all-metal construction. Released in the late 1970s as part of Nikon's AI (Automatic Indexing) series, this lens delivers a 74° angle of view on full-frame or 35mm film cameras and is compatible with a wide range of Nikon F-mount bodies. The focusing ring operates smoothly, and the lens produces crisp center sharpness even wide open, with excellent corner-to-corner performance when stopped down. Its minimal distortion, compact footprint, and vintage character make it a go-to choice for street, landscape, and documentary shooters who appreciate classic Nikon glass.
