Cons:Ugly but very compact and functional light screen
Opinion:A lens that comes out in 2001 together with the FM3a, the last manual (or almost) film reflex. The usual Ken Rockwell talks about it very badly calling it a collectible object more than a serious goal, but I suspect he does it for his own preconceptions. The truth is that it is an extremely compact good-level lens, worthy of the Nikkor pancake strand, including the 45 2.8 GN and the 50 1.8 AIs of 1980. Being already equipped with CPU, the 45P does not need to be included in the appropriate archive in the reflex menu. Maybe the focus ring is a bit thin, but you get into the habit right away as long as you don't want to take pictures with ski gloves. It is well contrasted and defined, spherical aberration disappears from f4 onwards. The irrelevant weight allows you to lighten the REFLEX without sacrificing quality. Of many optics of the past, this one deserves to return to production for fans of manual focus.

Pros:Minimum dimensions, solid construction, clear and contrasted, unique colors in the Nikon house
Cons:underpaid with a stop
Opinion:taken more out of curiosity and collector's pride, and was the last optic produced manual focus and with her has definitely closed an era for Nikon.rnEven in the window there is still because the little guy has many qualities, first a perfect silver finish for the Df, its compactness makes it light and not bulky but what is surprising are the optical qualities, how does this nanetto to be so clear and performing and a miracle, already in Ta is fine and closed becomes a real blade, moreover and very contrasted which makes it excellent for the BN, the colors tend to have a cinematic effect, certainly unique and particular finding no evidence with other ais, G and D that I own, vignette in a pronounced but correct and distorts very little.rnThe only real inconvenience that is reflected and that underpa 1 stop at any opening, controlled well and the aperture ring works correctly, the Df has no problems because with the other objectives that's fine, so the mystery of why remains for me; so heavily, in practice and as if it were an f4 instead of an f2.8 .-- rnEdit 7.1.2018 - rnAfter intense use I confirm everything, also reflected a noticeable 3D effect, with favorable light of course all objectives can those more who less get it, but this is an out of the 3D optics, I leave a picture by way of example for the remarkable result obtained at a diaphragm that is certainly not congenial.
Pros:optical quality, reduced weight and dimensions
Cons:TA is a bit 'soft around the edges, but I think it's normal
Opinion:I found it at a high price (silver) but yet again, with the packaging and its beautiful accessories dedicated (UV filter and lens hood, and gray bag). It fits perfectly with my Df silver with which formidable pairing shape for portability and quality of the yield, in addition to the undoubted aesthetic pleasure. The clarity is superb already af: 4 and reaches its peak at f: 8, with indistinguishable edges of the center in terms of sharpness. The contrast is high, obviously with a scheme to 4 lenses and perhaps is not the best for portraits, unless you want to enhance wrinkles etc .. In the landscape, even urban, is excellent from every point of view, even when rendering the color. The MF with my Df does not create any problem and is very precise (the confirmation signal in viewfinder is unnecessary in good light conditions).
Cons:value for money, brightness limited to "only" 2.8. Spherical aberration at RT.
Opinion:Combined with my FM3A is an unbeatable combination in terms of reliability, versatility and lightness in difficult environmental conditions (low temperatures, high mountains ...). RnUn bit 'soft at the edges at room temperature, it becomes very clear when you close the aperture a little . Weight and size really ridiculous associated with a mechanical construction of the past.
