The 28mm (2.8cm) Nikkor for the Nikon Rangefinder cameras

The 28mm f3.5 W-Nikkor for the Nikon rangefinder cameras has been a favorite of mine ever since I bought it in 1971. I used it more than a normal lens for work throughout the 1970s and 80s. It is compact and sharp. A Nikon RF camera so equipped is easy to slip into a waist pouch and it weighed almost nothing. Although I use my 21mm more often now, I still appreciate the images this lens can give me.
