Decided I needed to accumulate more glass for the Nikkormat FT2.  Picked up a BGN-rated 105-P at KEH last week.  Just arrived.  It's sterling.  Glass is pristine.  This is my first dealing with KEH, and I gotta say, I'm impressed.  Very nice lens, with just some brassing on the barrel.

I've got the lens mounted now and am pointing it at the kids summarily.  Can't wait to see what this reportedly "legendary" lens can do!

You won't be disappointed. The best photos I have taken of each of my girls were with this lens mounted on my F3. Mine is the later Gauss version, yours is the Sonnar but both are winners.

Thanks, Mike.  I'm hopeful.  Been dark and bleak here of late, and by the time the kids (or the wife) get home, it's dark to the point of being useless photographically.  Might have to go shooting around Birdsboro to test this out...

You can never have too many Nikon protects.
