ShunCheung Posted January 20, 2023 Share Posted January 20, 2023 Available on US amazon.com for $12,870.11 and yes, the currency is US dollars. It is a special edition where the lens elements are made out of diamonds. 😁 Be one of the seven very special people to obtain this rare lens.

Diamond have high dispersion so would give very strong chromatic aberrations - the opposite of ED glass - it's what gives diamond jewelry their fire.

Doesn’t look like anybody has bought this expensive Nikkor. They still have seven left. And I assume people buy it as jewelry. 😁 Or they are really unwise.
