1980s Look for Today‘s Large Format Sensors
Nikon, a respected name in optics for more than a century, earned a special place in the photography world by consistently pioneering new concepts and expanding possibilities.
Vantage Nikkor lenses combine elements from manual-focus Nikkor still photography lenses of the 1970s and ‘80s with Vantage’s strict mechanical standards. These rehoused high-speed lenses bring older coatings and distinctive flaws to today’s motion picture shoots.
Offering unique flavor in a dependable, durable package, Vantage Nikkors come in a big set of nine primes, an echo of Nikon’s reputation for covering the entire gamut of focal lengths, from 15 mm to 180 mm.
