Nikon Series E Zoom 75–150mm f/3.5 (SN: 2007738) – Compact Manual Focus Telephoto Zoom
A lightweight and well-regarded zoom lens with excellent image quality – ideal for portrait and travel photography.

The Nikon Series E 75–150mm f/3.5 is a compact and constant-aperture zoom lens designed for Nikon’s F-mount SLR cameras. Part of the budget-conscious Series E lineup from the early 1980s, it gained a reputation for its surprisingly good optical performance, especially in portrait photography.

Unlike many zooms of the era, this lens maintains a constant f/3.5 aperture throughout the zoom range. Its compact size, good contrast, and smooth manual focus make it a practical and affordable telephoto option for both film and digital Nikon users.
