Vintage Nikon lenses are some of the best glass around, with some of its AI-S lenses being rehoused for cinema use. Remember all the stop-motion work in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom? All that was done using a Nikon lens. With its Z-series camera, Nikon has made its way into the world of mirrorless cameras, and the lenses in its lineup are some pretty interesting pieces of tech.

While it’s not designed for cinema use, the quality of its predecessors seems to be ready to support photographers and video shooters alike.
Let’s dive in a bit more.
