My perspective correction shift lens Nikon PC-Nikkor 28mm f/3.5 is for sale from EU (DK)

Unusually fine condition, very clean sample, 400 EUR (which for the time being equals 345 GBP - or 540 USD - or 3000 DKK)

Very well preserved. No signs of use, and glass is nice and clean. Made in Japan.

Comes with original front and rear caps, original Nikon HN-9 metal hood likewise made in Japan, and a user's guide in German.

Payment via PayPal or Bank Transfer as you prefer.

We can share the shipping costs.

If you are a NEX user you can also have this Fotodiox Nikon(G)-NEX adapter for free, provided I still have the adapter when you tell me you want to buy the PC-lens (i.e. provided I haven't sold the adapter with another F-mount lens in the meantime).

Fotodiox Nikon Nikkor (Including G-Type) Lens to Sony Alpha Nex E-mount Camera Lens Mount Adapter


NB: I got the Fotodiox adapter along with another AI-S Nikkor lens and I have never tried it with the PC-Nikkor as I do not own a Sony NEX camera, so I have actually no idea about how well they work together.

You will have to ask some of the NEX experts about that.

Steen, If i have not happened to own a mint, late version sample (similar to yours), I would have grabbed this. How large a circle this projects, if anyone wonders, should search photo.net for Kelly Flannigan's posts and samples on a phase one scanning back. It is impressive. Yes, it will work in conjunction with an additional simple adapter to NEX or even their shift version to achieve unprecedented movements! :)

Thanks a lot, Vivek, for your support with this NEX adapter information.

I precisely hoped that some NEX expert would chime in on this NEX-specific adapter matter.

Much appreciated.

I have usually used the PC Nikkor at f/8 to get enough depth of field and at the same time avoid diffraction to be visible, and with a max shift of ~ 7mm or so to avoid the light rays to become too stretched.

The in-focus plane shows some field curvature that makes it better for curved sceneries than plane subjects as you may be able to see in this church picture at f/8 and 7mm shift.

Here's an image from inside the church showing that it performs better inside the curved church room, I think.

Again f/8 and 7mm shift.
