Rick, thank you for the report and reminder.

I'm particularly interested in the 50mm (200mm/f4.0?) astro camera.  Do you know what the finely ticked scale (which is located where usually the depth of field scale is supposed to be) is for?

it looks like a DOF scale 

it has the usual arrow like on the Nikkor-Q 135/2.8
