In this last part my mini-series looking at wide angle Nikkor LTM lenses, I’m going to look at the W-Nikkor.C 2.5cm f/4. At first glance the W-Nikkor.C 2.5cm f/4 is a similar story to the 3.5cm f/2.5 and 2.8cm f/3.5. However, I’d consider it the twins’ younger sibling, the capricious baby if you will. Due to its size and construction certain decisions needed to be made that make this lens the quirkiest of the bunch.

Pergear 25mm f/1.8 Review – A Brand New Lens for my Sony for ~£50!

It’s been discontinued for over 10 years but for those who want high quality results at a relatively low cost and with minimum hassle it’s a superb little lens and not too hard to find used. I love mine, especially for travel and landscape shots. Here are some reasons why:
