Interesting Nikkor 28mm

Not that I have money to buy the lens but I just never heard anything about this lens :

It looks like industrial Nikon product.

I don't care if it's the rarest thing on earth, the pits in the glass make it a $3000 paper weight.

True...true...but is that for 35mm film coverage?

If that description is correct you won't even be able to use it to enlarge Minox negatives.

So is it, or is it not a Luminar clone? (Those will cover 6x9, IIRC)

lenses like that are designed for very high magnifications and are supposed to be mounted on a bellows. I have no idea what the coverage would be. Where is Dan Fromm when you need him?

Look at the link in post #4: 8mm.
But what is most interesting is reversing it and using it for 6x9. That sounds like lots of fun.
