Nikon D2Xs and Nikon 75-150mm f/3.5 Series E lens set at 105mm. 100 ISO. F/7.6; 1/250th sec.

In 'The Nikon Compendium Handbook of the Nikon System' by Rudolf Hillebrand and Hans-Joachim Hauschild, it is remarked of the 75-150mm Nikon Series E f/3.5 lens, 'The image quality of this NIC-coated lens is so good that it would have fitted perfectly into the Nikkor programme.'
Moose Peterson said of the 75-150mm Nikon Series E f/3.5 lens: 'for a time, this lens was "the" lens in New York for fashion work, especially in the studio'.
Bjørn Rørslett said of the 75-150mm Nikon Series E f/3.5 lens: 'This modest lens, harking back to the Nikon EM glorious days of the early 80's, has deservedly got a reputation for its excellent quality. It is a one-touch zoom design where the focusing collar moves freely with little or no resistance at all to make working with the 75-150 fast and easy. In common with many other longish zooms it's a splendid performer when close-up lenses are added to its 52 mm front thread. I prefer to set the apertures in the f/8-f/11 range to obtain optimum sharpness. Beware of flare when it is pointed towards the sun, though.'
