Kiril-san's Super Collection from Beautiful Sweden Vol. 1

Mr. Kiril Arsov, Kiril-san is a super collector in Sweden.
He is collecting rare and unusual ultra high resolution Nikkor lenses.
He is my firend on Internet.

He was not able to talk about those lenses, and was collecting lenses alone.
No one understood the value of his collection.
Long time passed, and he and I encountered by the Internet.
I understood the value of his collection and I was surprised.
I hope to introduce his collection for friends all over the world.

Please look at the photograph above.
He has two Micro Nikkor 70mm F5 lenses.
A left lens is an early model, and has the mark named 7 cm on the face top.
A center lens is a later model, and has the mark named 70mm on the face top.
And then, a big lens is famous Repro Nikkor 170mm F1.4.

COM Nikkor 37mm F1.4

One of the more fantastic and rare lenses for the CRT Recording-Nikkor series.
The COM-Nikkor 37mm F1.4 consisted of eight elements set in a little heavy weight and silver tiny barrel.
The rim of the lens is engraved as "COM-NIKKOR 1:1.4 f=37mm M=1/8 Nikon" with white painted character.
Therefore, the lens is highly efficient and a distortion is +0.07%!!!
You can see very beautiful and elegant tiny body of the super recording lens.
And, You can make the fantastic legend with this lens.

These lenses are very unusual according to my reserching.
The person who has these two lenses might be a little also in the world.
However, I might be surprised more in this world.

If you see the following photograph, you might be surprised.

Super Otaku People

Yes, you can see 18 CRT Nikkor 55mm F1.2 lenses. 18 same lenses !!!
And then, you can see Ultra Micro Nikkor 28mm F1.8, 28mm F1.7 and 55mm F2.

The person like kiril-san is called in Japan "Otaku".
"Otaku" is generally people with a young enthusiastic animation fan in Japan.
However, we often say the respect with "Camera Otaku".

Otaku means "Super Enthusiast" in Japanese.
For young people, "Otaku" is not good word.
May be animation-otaku student does not work study at school.
But we are gentlemen.
"Otaku" is the Medal of Honor for people who have nice hobby.

You can read "For Nippon Kogaku Enthusiast and International Super Otaku People" on top page of my website.
