Officially called the Fisheye Nikkor 6mm f/2.8, this unit happens to be 171 mm long and has the lens diameter of 236mm, one of the largest in the world of photography.
Ever since its debut in Germany in 1970, its capabilities became the center of attraction, as it was the most extreme technology in the niche area. To garner the attention around it, only a few hundred were ever produced for sale, out of which this particular piece happens to be one, only rediscovered 7 weeks ago in Europe. The principal application was in scientific photography or high definition angular shots for detailed film making, for which it was known.
Now this lens will be auctioned through Grey's of West Minister, an organization in London, which specializes in Nikon products.
