>>4245333>>4245456I'm glad you're both fired up, this was my passion for a long time.
The best cheap NIKKOR glass I got was:
- Pre-Ai NIKKOR-S 50mm f/1.4 (fantastic quality lens. The best cheap fast glass you can get for these cameras)
- Pre-Ai NIKKOR-S 50mm f/2 (previously mentioned)
- Ai 70's NIKKOR 50mm f/1.8 "pancake" (extremely sharp, shots look different than the 1.4, try to avoid the "SERIES E" if possible, it's the cheaper version)
- Pre-Ai 60's NIKKOR 200mm f/4 (attached picture was shot with this one)
- Pre-Ai NIKKOR-Q 135mm f/3.5 (decent portrait/zoom lens, can be got cheap as it's the less expensive version of the 2.8)
- Pre-Ai MICRO-NIKKOR 55mm f/3.5 (REALLY handy macro lens, sharp too, has built in "lens hood")
This was my total kit for a few years, plus a bunch of odds and ends like spacers, filters (I loved my star filter), flash, pinhole lens cap (lomography fun for dirt cheap!), remote, Canon adapter ring to let my Canon friends try my old glass, and a bunch more crap. Yes my shoulders got sore from carrying it all!
