Description

Up for auction is this 75mm Nikkor-SW f/4.5 lens in a Copal #0 Shutter. This lens is designed for 4x5, where it will cover well at infinity with some room for movements. When I was shopping for a wide angle 4x5 lens, I came to the conclusion that this was this was probably the best all around value when considering image quality, image circle, speed, distortion, size, and cost. You will find plenty of lenses in this general size category that beat this lens in some of these areas, but will lose out in other ways. In other words, this is just a great all around-choice for someone looking for a wide angle 4x5 lens, especially if you do not need a lot of movements at infinity. I have not used this lens much, but it has served me well when I have. It is in a Copal #0 shutter which functions flawlessly(I can provide a speed chart before shipping, but the prospective buyer will likely want to test for themselves). The lens is in good cosmetic condition with no major issues and includes both Nikon branded front and rear lens caps. There is some dust in the glass, but no haze or fungus. The lens is currently mounted on a plastic 3D printed Pacemaker Graphic board, and yes it will fit and focus to infinity on a Pacemaker Speed Graphic. This may be the widest lens you can reasonably fit on one of these cameras.
