I removed them from my AI lenses :) It was for aesthetic reasons and I kept the rabbit ears.

I can see the potential desire to simplify the look of the lens by removing them, and in practical terms, the ADR (Aperture Direct Readout) feature of the AIS lenses was somewhat impeded by the rabbit-ears (despite the small holes to let light through, it was for sure the case the f/8 and f/4 were a bit harder to read in the viewfinder due to the rabbit-ears presence blocking the light).  I guess I always treated my Nikkors as "sacred objects" that should be treasured and preserved as-is: One reason I never CPU-chipped my AiS Nikkors!

Unless the rabbit ears have been removed or lost! :-X

Well, to be fair, that's basically what I said!  In all my years of shopping for used MF Nikkors, I have literally never seen one with the rabbit-ears removed.  I am aware of a few internet-photographers who _do_ remove them (supposedly because they can snag on things), but that was for sure a minority position.

A brooklet on the Norwegian-Swedish border. This is deep into the conifer forests and drainage waters are peat coloured.

Been under the weather recently,  but sufficiently on the mend today to drive to Sweden (not very far off, by the way). On this trip I packed my old Df together with the modern Z bodies. Culling the files later reminded me how nice and malleable the NEFs from Df are.




love it
