Very interesting read. This could also be of interest: https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/?_page=_CVNUMBER_&s=sensor+stack

What an interesting article. My first Nikkor was the K version of the 85mm f1.8. I still have that lens, nearly 50 years later, along with an AI-ed version bought much more recently. I do love its characteristics, but even more I love the way it handles.

The info about the sensor filter is really good. I still have a big selection of old Nikkor manual lenses, and do love to shoot them, even with their flaws. A vertical version of this image that I took with the 24mm f2.8 AIS on a D600 ran six columns wide as the cover of the Los Angeles Times Travel section a dozen years ago. So don't go abandoning those old lenses just yet.

I bought several Lenses and Cameras there.   No single Issue with them.  Also registration with Nikon & NPS was no Problem (full warrenty worldwide),  because all Nikon products come from Nikon factories,  Made in Japan, made in Thailand or made in China, depending on the product line ...
