Nikon PB-5 Bellows Focusing Attachment

The Nikon PB-5 is a bellows focusing attachment used for close-up and macro photography on Nikon F-mount SLR bodies. It mounts between the camera and a lens to provide continuously variable extension for high-magnification work.

Auction data for the PB-5 is thin: a single UK saleroom hammer result from March 2023 saw an example sell for £19. With only one data point, this is best treated as an indicative wholesale price rather than a reliable market value, and what a PB-5 sells for today will depend heavily on completeness, rail smoothness and cosmetic condition.
