Nikon 300mm f/9 (Large Format)

A four-element Nikkor-M large-format lens in a Copal #1 shutter, prized for its featherweight build and exceptional sharpness across formats from 4x5 through 8x10. Serves as a normal lens on 5x7 and a mild wide-angle on 8x10, making it one of the most versatile optics in the large-format world.
