Very sad about what I discovered yesterday! Lens question

Grade: 3.7 35mm/AF Nikkor AF 24/2,8

 

 

 

Grade: 3.2 35mm/AF Nikkor AF 28/2,8D

 

 

From this, you can see that the "D" lens is actually rated less than the non-D in the 24mm version. Perhaps there is enough variance to make little difference. If some one loaned you a lens with tape over the lens info and you used it with great results, would you still refuse to use it, if you couldn't make sure it wasn't a "D" version ?

 

Keep the lens.

Isn't the 28mm F2 sharper than the 28mm F2.8 (D and non-D)? - http://www.naturfotograf.com

 

When I got my 1st 50mm lens for my FM2T I was happy for several months. This happiness ended when one day I saw the "E" on the lens. Since then I haven't been happy nor have I been sleeping. Excuse me while I have my 10th cup of coffee, a Brazilian blend. :-))

Just keep the sun over your shoulder. The 50/1.8 Series-E is

single coated so its color and contrast wont be as

good if the sun caresses the font element as any of Nikon's other

50/1.8(s). Its also in a cheaper mount that will only focus

to 0.6m v. 0.45m.<br>

BTW the back on your FM2/T is aluminum. <br>

Flᶩo, as a medical doctor I think this seems more like an obsessional/compulsive behavior than perfectionism. You should focus more on photography and consider visiting a shrink if these "little things" really keep bugging you. I have a friend that sold me a Nikkor 28mm/2.8 for almost nothing just because he could not live with the idea that it had an almost microspopical scratch on it.

Good luck.
