Prepare for real art with an art lens!!!!!!
I was always intrigued by the Oscilloscope-Nikkor. At f/1.2 it is obviously super-fast compared to most of the macro-range Nikkors. Probably this was to allow capture of relatively dim oscilloscope traces, but what were the optical implications/compromises of that fast speed? Enquiring minds want to know..
And congrats on finding a super minty copy!
For a simple mind like mine, the optical impliation is that this lens can only be used up close where it can render very interesting images with a lot of differences depending on aperture, at 'normal' distance all you get is junk.
