Extensive Compatibility
This manual focus lens is tailored to select 35mm single-lens reflex Nikon cameras. However, the lens mount is interchangeable with Nikon Ai-S with in-built CPU and further utilises an Ai coupler. In short, this is a coupling system first implemented by Nikon in 1977, with Ai being short for Automatic Maximum Aperture Indexing. By not affecting the traditional Nikon bayonet mount, Ai lenses are still able to be fitted to older non-Ai cameras. By fitting the Voigtlander 28mm f2.8 Aspherical SL II-S Color-Skopar Lens with an Ai coupling system, you are able to mount this Nikon F-mount lens onto a range of camera systems spanning from older film cameras to the latest digital single-lens reflex systems.
