30-559: The D700's full-frame sensor allows the use of F-mount (FX) lenses to their fullest advantage, with almost no crop factor . When a cropped DX lens is mounted on the D700, either the DX-sized portion, or the (vignetted) FX-sized portion of the camera's sensor can be used. The D700 has a built in autofocus motor for all Nikon autofocus- lenses , includes CPU and metering for older Nikon F-mount AI/AI-S lenses, and supports PC-E lenses . The D700 bears

60-522: A CPU enabled lens; the aperture of G designated lenses cannot be controlled without an electronic camera body; non-AI lenses (manufactured prior to 1977) can cause mechanical damage to later model bodies unless they are modified to meet the AI specification; and AF-P lenses (introduced in 2016) will not focus, even manually, on cameras introduced before roughly 2013. Many manual focus lenses can be converted to allow metering with consumer Nikon bodies by adding

90-560: A Dandelion chip to the lens. Most Nikon F-mount lenses cover a minimum of the standard 36×24   mm area of 35mm format and the Nikon FX format , while DX designated lenses cover the 24×16   mm area of the Nikon DX format , and industrial F-mount lenses have varying coverage. DX lenses may produce vignetting when used on film and FX cameras. However, Nikon lenses designed for film cameras will work on Nikon digital system cameras with

120-510: A 50mm screw mount. Most are 6-element, 4-group designs. Some slower, lower-cost designs (marked †) are 4-element, 3-group designs. Newer versions of these lenses are marked with an "N" (focal lengths to 105mm) or "A" (focal lengths from 135mm). (Per Nikon, Inc. Technical and Service Support (800-645-6689), manufacture and sale of all enlarging lenses has been discontinued.) The Apo-EL-Nikkor series of lenses are true Apochromat photo enlarging lenses with chromatic aberration corrected not only for

150-406: A PC-E lens operates like a PC lens. The PC Micro-Nikkor 85   mm f / 2.8D lens offers only preset aperture control, actuated mechanically by pressing a plunger. In July 1962, Nikon released the first interchangeable perspective-control lens available for a single-lens reflex camera , the 35mm f / 3.5 PC-Nikkor. This was followed in 1968 by a redesigned 35mm f / 2.8 PC-Nikkor in which

180-530: A new optical design. This was the last of the completely manual PC-Nikkors to be offered. Nikkor lenses designated AF-S, AF-I and AF-P have integrated autofocus motors, but other manufacturers included in the list do not designate it as clearly. These lenses are needed for autofocus on certain newer low-end Nikon cameras which lack an autofocus motor . Without autofocus motor are the Nikon D40 , D40X , D60 , D3xxx (most recent: D3500 ), D5xxx (most recent: D5600 ),

210-583: A physical similarity to the Nikon D300 , which uses the same MB-D10 battery pack and EN-EL3e battery. It was discontinued on August 24, 2012. The Nikon D700 has been tested by many independent reviewers and has generally received high marks. It achieved a top ranking in the DxOmark Sensor ranking and was, as of November 2011, ranked ninth behind the Nikon D3 , Nikon D3S , Nikon D3X , four medium format cameras and

240-834: A regular rate, solely for and about the D700. Further affirming its continued relevance, many professionals still consider it their main camera for project or personal work, and a backup for professional engagements. The D700 is considered by many as an icon.

270-525: Is a type of interchangeable lens mount developed by Nikon for its 35mm format single-lens reflex cameras . The F-mount was first introduced on the Nikon F camera in 1959, and features a three-lug bayonet mount with a 44   mm throat and a flange to focal plane distance of 46.5   mm. The company continues, with the 2020 D6 model, to use variations of the same lens mount specification for its film and digital SLR cameras . The Nikon F-mount successor

300-523: Is opposite of the direction normally used by Canon . F-mount lenses also typically have aperture rings that turn clockwise to close. The aperture rings have two sets of f-stop numbers. On cameras equipped with Nikon's Aperture Direct Readout (ADR) system, a small window under the pentaprism reads the smaller scale and displays the selected f-stop in the viewfinder . Nikon has introduced many proprietary designations for F-mount Nikkor lenses, reflecting design variations and developments both in lenses and

330-623: Is the Nikon Z-mount . The Nikon F-mount is one of only two SLR lens mounts (the other being the Pentax K-mount ) which were not abandoned by their associated manufacturer upon the introduction of autofocus , but rather extended to meet new requirements related to metering , autofocus , and aperture control. The large variety of F-mount compatible lenses makes it the largest system of interchangeable flange-mount photographic lenses in history. Over 400 different Nikkor lenses are compatible with

420-584: Is the name of a Japanese town .) In 1933, Nikon marketed its first camera lens under the Nikkor brand name, the "Aero-NIKKOR," for aerial photography . Nikon originally reserved the Nikkor designation for its highest-quality imaging optics, but in recent history almost all Nikon lenses are so branded. Notable Nikkor branded optics have included: Nikon introduced the Z-mount in 2018 for their system of digital full-frame and APS-C (DX) mirrorless cameras . All of Nikon's Z-mount lenses are Nikkors. Nikkors constitute

450-490: The Nikon 1 series with FT1 adapter and the Nikon Z-mount cameras with FTZ adapter. Zeiss ZF series lenses are manual-focus designs Nikon AI-S type aperture indexing. They are manufactured by Cosina to Zeiss specifications. Four design variations are designated ZF, ZF.2, ZF-I, and ZF-IR. ZF is the original product line. ZF.2 lenses are CPU-enabled (similar to Nikon AI-P lenses) offering full metering compatibility with

510-627: The APS-C sized Pentax K-5 . The camera received several awards, including a Digital Photography Review "Highly Recommended" award. In the years following its release, the D700 has retained its status as a capable camera, and has established itself a legend in the world of digital photography. As of 2024, many prominent photography outlets continue to praise the D700. In recent years, and unlike any other DSLR , further and updated reviews have been published, YouTube videos uploaded, with web forums, entire websites, and social media pages dedicated and updated at

540-638: The F-mount in non-photographic imaging applications. The F-mount has a significant degree of both backward and forward compatibility . Many current autofocus F-mount lenses can be used on the original Nikon F , and the earliest manual-focus F-mount lenses of the 1960s and early 1970s can, with some modification, still be used to their fullest on all professional-class Nikon cameras. Incompatibilities do exist, however, and adventurous F-mount users should consult product documentation in order to avoid problems. For example, many electronic camera bodies cannot meter without

570-484: The F-mount itself. There are also "unofficial" designations used by collectors and dealers to differentiate similar lenses. Nikon PC lenses, like other perspective control lenses , offer adjustments that duplicate certain view camera movements . The 28mm and 35mm PC lenses support shifting the lens in relation to the film or sensor plane, while Nikon's 19mm, 24mm, 45mm, and 85mm PC-E lenses also support tilting . Nikon currently offers four different PC lenses for sale:

600-839: The case of the Nikkor wides, "W" just means "wide". Prior to approximately 1976, most Nikon lenses had a suffix appended directly after the "Nikkor" name that was used to denote the number of optical elements in the lens design. For example, a lens with eight elements would be marked "Nikkor-O", and a lens with eleven elements "Nikkor-UD". Four-group wide-angle lens series, consisting of six, seven, or eight elements: Six-element, four-group series: Compact, 4-element, 3-group series. 8-element, 4-group true Apochromat macro lens series, optimized for 1:1 reproduction. Telephoto series. The 360 mm / 600 mm are triple- convertible lenses with 500 mm and 720 mm / 800 mm and 1200 mm interchangeable rear elements which were available separately. true Apochromat series, designed for

660-452: The four PC-E Nikkors (2008 and 2016), and the 85mm PC-Nikkor (1999). The 45   mm and 85   mm "Micro" lenses offer close focus (0.5 magnification) for macrophotography . The PC- E lenses (the "E" designates an electromagnetic diaphragm) offer automatic aperture control with all DSLRs with CMOS image sensor except the Nikon D90 . With earlier DSLRs and all "analog" film camera models,

690-449: The full range of AF Nikon SLR cameras. ZF-I lenses add mechanical locks for focus and aperture, and additional environmental sealing, for industrial applications. ZF-IR lenses are adapted to infrared imaging, with coatings that transmit wavelengths up to 1100 nm, and focus scales marked for infrared. CP.2 lenses are a series of Zeiss "CompactPrime" cinema lenses which present F-mount as one of three mounting options. The lenses cover

720-403: The limitations noted above. F-mount lenses lock by turning counter-clockwise (when looking at the front of lens) and unlock clockwise. Nearly all F-mount lenses have zoom and focus controls that rotate in the clockwise direction (as viewed from behind the camera) to increase focal length and focus distance respectively. This convention is also used in Pentax K-mount and Sony A-mount lenses but

The wide angle version Apo-Nikkor lens was developed for small-scale platemaking cameras. The EL-Nikkor series of lenses are designed for photographic enlargers . Most feature 39mm Leica thread mounts, although some feature

840-473: The shifting portion of the lens was further from the camera's body, in order to clear the new "Photomic" meters. The last optical redesign of this 35mm lens was released in 1980. The 35mm PC-Nikkor did not meet the need of photographers for a wider-angle lens, so in July 1975 Nikon released the 28mm f / 4 PC-Nikkor. In February 1981 Nikon released an improved version of this lens, the 28mm f / 3.5 PC-Nikkor, with

870-600: The system. The F-mount is also popular in scientific and industrial applications, most notably machine vision . The F-mount has been in production for over 60 years, the only SLR lens mount with such longevity. In addition to Nikon's own range of " Nikkor " lenses, brands of F-mount photographic lenses include Zeiss , Voigtländer , Schneider , Angénieux , Samyang , Sigma , Tokina , Tamron , Hartblei , Kiev-Arsenal , Lensbaby , and Vivitar . F-mount cameras include current models from Nikon , Fujifilm , Sinar , JVC , Kenko and Horseman. Numerous other manufacturers employ
