What it is
{"overview":"The Nikon 55mm f\/1.2 Ai is a fast standard prime lens for the Nikon F bayonet mount, built in the Ai (Aperture Indexing) generation that Nikon introduced in 1977. Check the aperture blades for oil migration, confirm the focus ring turns smoothly without stiffness or grit, and look for coating scratches and any sign of element separation around cemented groups.
