Nikkor SW 90mm f/8

Very sharp corner to corner with lots of movement and contrast is first rate

Weaknesses:
If only Nikkor could design a f5.6 version with the same exterior dimensions.

Nikkor SW 90mm f/8

Summary:
This lens gives you great performance in a smaller package than the 5.6 versions. The price is also less. Great field lens, a bit dull for focusing indoors. For colour work will give warmer results than Schnieder or Rodenstock.

Strengths:
Small size, large image circle, 8 element design - good correction for distortion.

Weaknesses:
Warmer colour balance than Schnieder or Rodenstock, and probably Fujinon.

darker image than a 5.6 lens- not a problem outdoors, workable inside.
