40 miljoen Nikkor objectieven sinds 1959

Nikon Corporation is pleased to announce that production figures for our NIKKOR SLR interchangeable lenses surpassed the 40 million mark this month. Forty-eight years have passed since Nikon introduced the first NIKKOR lens with F mount, together with our first SLR camera, the Nikon F, in 1959.

Nikon first introduced the NIKKOR brand of photo lenses in 1932. At that time, NIKKOR lenses were attached not only to Nikon cameras, such as the Nikon I introduced in 1948, but also to Leica cameras, and later to Contax cameras. In 1959, the F mount, a 44mm large-diameter bayonet mount, was first employed for the Nikon F. Since then, Nikon has maintained the same format for almost half a century, offering compatibility with each new Nikon camera up to the latest digital SLR D40X. Along the way, new technologies have been incorporated, such as improved aperture and autofocus control, and information exchange with the camera body.

At present, NIKKOR has a lineup of 57 lenses2 including DX NIKKORs for exclusive use with Nikon digital SLRs, plus fisheyes, ultra-wideangles, telephotos, zooms and micros.
