Please note that a special chip was additionally installed on this lens (see the photo below). Why this chip is needed is described in detail in the section. Dandelion Lushnikova.

How to use Nikon manual lenses (such as this one - no CPU and manual focus) on any modern Nikon digital SLR camera or on 'Nikon 1' system cameras, described in the ''. Older lenses are sometimes watched by owners of Canon cameras, who can use them on their cameras no worse than on their Nikon cameras. To do this, just use the adapter Nikon - Canon. Of course, manual lenses from SLR cameras can also be used on any mirrorless lenses with the help of an adapter.

Nikon Lens Series E 50mm 1: 1.8 (MKII) is a pancake lens, it is small and not very tall. The lens weighs only 155 grams, while it has a metal mount and a metal thread for light filters. The diameter of the front light filter is small - 52 mm. Despite the fact that it is from the 'E' series, it is well made. This baby is much more pleasant to the touch than modern whale lenses. On the case, you can find the inscription, warming the soul - 'Made in Japan'.

The focus ring has a narrow rubberized insert. The ring rotates smoothly 135 degrees. During focusing, the front lens does not rotate, and the trunk of the lens lengthens slightly. The minimum focusing distance is 60 cm (slightly larger than modern autofocus fifty dollars) The lens has focus distance marks in meters and feet, the depth of field scale, a mark for shooting in the infrared spectrum. The F numbers and the depth of field lines (on the aluminum ring) have a different color and correspond to each other, which is typical for old Nikon lenses:

F / 11 - yellow
F / 16 - blue
F / 22 - orange

Diaphragm consists of seven petals, which affects the 'nuts' in the blur zone (example on f / 2.8). Diaphragm closes to F / 22. Aperture ring plastic.

The optical scheme of the lens consists of 6 elements in 5 groups and they say that the same scheme is used in the lens Nikon 50mm1: 1.8D AF Nikkor (in fact, in all three options: MKI, MK II, MKIII) Also, most likely, the same scheme is used with Nikon Nikkor 50mm 1: 1.8 AI lenses, AI-Sthat have been produced since 1980.

Nikon Lens Series E 50mm 1: 1.8 (MKII) lacks multi-coating (all 6 lenses have only single-layer coating and this is not an advanced coating like 'NIC', 'SIC' or 'N'). In the optical viewfinder, you can see how the picture from the lens is painted in a warm yellowish tint.

For the lens, you can buy a rubber hood Nikon HR-4, which is screwed in instead of or over the filter.

The lens is not the sharpest at F / 1.8, but it’s worth a little to cover the aperture and everything falls into place. Despite single-layer enlightenment, the Nikon Lens Series E 50mm 1: 1.8 (MKII) is not particularly afraid of backlight. There is noticeable vignetting on F / 1.8. Rough bokeh. In general, image quality is very similar to autofocus counterparts MKI и MKII... Once, on a 'serious' Western forum, I came across information that the optical scheme for the lens was designed with one main task - to create the sharpest image at closed apertures, while sacrificing the 'drawing' of the lens.
