I'm close to getting a Nikkor 450M9, I've combed the archives for info on this l ens and one thing I read there bothers me and it is this statement.....'Those Ni kkor M lenses produced in 80s might be better (Nikon cared about their LF lenses then)'.
Is there a difference in the build quality, workmanship, pride in their prod uct between Nikon LF lenses, then and now? Maybe a better question would be has the build quality of the 450 Nikkor been of the same caliber throughout its man ufacture?
Is it going to be necessary for me to find out when a particular lens has be en manufactured or is the fact that it is a Nikon LF lens guarentee that it is w ell made?
