Today I just bought my brand new Nikon 45mm P f2.8 Lense in Black. This lense is absolutely awesome!! It is so sharp and very very lightweight as you can see in the photo on a D200. This photo I found on the Internet elsewhere by the way, but I am using it until I can take a different photo of my setup. There are two colors, black and silver, but by far the black 45mm P lense is much more rare. I bought this lense from a small mom and pop shop here in Nagano, Japan. I paid a little more for the black version, but I think this black 45mm P lense looks sweet on a Nikon D200. I will post some photos shortly when I get a chance to take it out for a spin.
Again, the great thing about this lense is that it is very small and extremely light weight. The aperture size of 45mm on the D200 is not bad. Plus the f2.8 makes it pretty fast. It is a manual focus lense though which is not good for those uncomfortable with that. For me, I find manual focus to be a welcome challenge and it helps boost creativity.
The Nikon Nikkor 45mm P f2.8 Lense in Black was purchased brand new! It came with a pouch, NC filter, lense, manual, box, etc. It’s all there and I was so excited to find and get this lense. Cute lense!
Also note that I believe this lense, especially the black version is now discontinued by Nikon.
UPDATE: I have received several email requests about where to buy a brand new Nikon 45mm P f2.8 Lense in Black. You can also buy the silver version too. Check Ebay and search for the ebay store called “MATSUIYASTORE”. The store is located in Japan and the seller speaks and writes in excellent English. This is one watering hole where I buy lenses that are hard to find. Please note that his prices are a little higher, but if you have ever bought anything used or new from Japan, you’ll know how maticulous the Japanese are at keeping products in excellent condition. Plus they generally save everything like the box, manual, etc. Anyway, I have yet to find anywhere else that sells the Black Nikkor 45mm Lense. I bought mine new here and it is definitely brand new and works awesome. Also note that I live in Japan so shipping was easy, but I totally this trust this shop and individual to ship well to all countries. If you have any questions or feel other wise, please feel free to contact me for more info.
UPDATE: MATSUIYASTORE currently has both a Black and Silver version listed in their store on Ebay as of March 7th, 2007. Grab it while you can!
