Nikkor-Q.C 13.5 cm F4 Nippon Kogagu Tokyo in Exakta mount . Nr 611185. Rare item.
Here we have the only known 135/f4.0 Nikkor in such a mount and from the 611 series as well. It is lens No.611185 . Was the idea of an Exakta lens being considered this early ? Was only one made as an experiment ? Why did the f3.5 Exaktas not show up for nearly five years , until well after the occupation ?. More may exits but for now this is a unique lens whose existence cannot be completely explained.
