Nikon 28mm F/2.8 Series E Lens

The Nikon 28mm f/2.8 Series E is a compact, lightweight wide-angle lens that punches well above its weight class. Originally part of Nikon’s cost-conscious Series E lineup, this lens was designed to deliver excellent performance in a smaller, more travel-friendly form factor—without sacrificing optical quality. With its all-metal mount, smooth manual focus ring, and classic Nikon F-mount compatibility, it’s a stellar choice for anyone shooting film or adapting to digital.

The 28mm focal length is perfect for landscapes, street photography, and environmental portraits. On full-frame film or digital bodies, it provides a natural wide perspective without the distortion you’d get from ultra-wides. On crop-sensor DSLRs or mirrorless cameras with an adapter, it becomes an excellent 42mm equivalent—just slightly wider than standard.
