toni_nikkanen Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 <p>I am interested in the 135 and 200mm Nikkor, and 150mm Zenzanon lenses. I have been unable to find out what is the minimun focusing distance of these lenses? I found one page listing all the Nikkor lenses but it was in Japanese, and at least after Google translation I got a good laugh, but not what I was looking for :) So anyone know?<br> One of the things I would use the lenses for is head and shoulders portraits, so being able to focus at least that close would be good. Or do I have to use a close-up filter (such as the Pentax #T226) ?</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karl_french1 Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 <p>135mm focuses down to 3.3 feet.<br> 200mm focuses down to 10.2 feet without the close up filter and 5.4 feet with the close up filter that originally came with the lens.</p> <p>I'm not sure about the Zenzanon 150mm.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toni_nikkanen Posted January 7, 2009 Author Share Posted January 7, 2009 <p>Ok, thanks!<br> Now I think I need to get a Pentax #T226 or equivalent high-quality close-up lens with 67mm thread from somewhere... bhphotovideo used to sell the Pentax lens, but not anymore and eBay is empty, so is KEH...</p> <p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toni_nikkanen Posted January 8, 2009 Author Share Posted January 8, 2009 <p>Ah, found a nice set of extension tubes instead. I'll think I'll stick to using extension tubes and one of the 135-150-200mm lenses for now, then (as soon as I get a lens bought as well, of course ;)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
