The non-PC 35mm f2.8, pre-"K" lenses (Nikkor-S AUTO 35mm f2.8 mine is called) with 7 elements on 5 groups. Later, the "K" (with rubber focus ring finish), Ai and early Ai-S had 6 elements in 6 groups, and the later Ai-S version had 5 elements in 5 groups.

The 35mm f2 started in 1961, so you might find one from 1969. The f1.4 versions started in 1971. My Canon FL 55mm f1.2 might be from 1969, I have not tried to exactly date my old nikkors (except my Nikkor-S•C 55mm f1.2 which probably is from 1973).

The next hot shit: https://www.dpreview.com/news/4791364485/zeiss-announces-radiance-prime-lenses-with-controlled-flare-effects-for-cinematographers

"controlled flare" - as a "style" as boring as always and only shallow DoF or damp colours. But you're right, Klaus, cinematographers might need a Yasuhara...

Weird, they have, for decades, been developing coatings to control (minimize) flare. Now, they call not controlled flare "controlled flare". Maybe they are trying to drive the price of my Canon FL 55mm f1.2 up?

JJ Abrams loves his flare effects for instance ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ALHiJaSPrns

To which you're referring?  Undecided 6 of them are AI types. I'm not saying "hell no, it's an outstanding lens". It just looks a bit fallen out of time in it's plastic bucket.

I agree, the 35/2.0 is really good. But it's 10 years younger and I just wanted to have one lens nearly as old as I am. Not on purpose, but as I read "1969" and "109.- francs" I got a "historic shards collector attack".

According to Ken Rockwell:

1962-1974

The second version, called Nikkor-S 35mm f/2.8, has 7 elements in 6 groups.
   Is that  the one ??

JJ Abarams easily can afford the services of a lens modifier like Matt Duclos: https://www.lensrentals.com/blog/2019/09...-1-duclos/

And flares apparently are the new hot shit... https://www.dpreview.com/videos/98740914...hic-lenses
