Nikon Nikkor 28mm AI-S — a manual-focus wide-angle prime built for the Nikon F-mount, belonging to the AI-S generation that introduced mechanical coupling for aperture-priority and program-metering compatibility on later Nikon film and digital bodies. The all-metal barrel construction reflects the build standards of Nikon's manual-focus era, paired with a smooth, well-damped focusing helicoid that rewards deliberate, tactile shooting. The 28mm focal length sits firmly in classic wide-angle territory, well suited to landscape, architecture, street, and environmental portrait work, offering a natural field of view without the heavy barrel distortion typical of ultra-wide optics. The aperture ring clicks through full and half stops for precise manual exposure control, while the AI-S coupling tab ensures compatibility with Nikon DSLR bodies in manual or aperture-priority mode, and can be adapted to mirrorless systems via simple mechanical adapters. A compact, dependable optic for photographers who prefer working with manual glass and appreciate the mechanical precision of Nikon's pre-autofocus lineup.
