Nikon is celebrating the production of its 40-millionth Nikkor SLR interchangeable lens.
'Nikon views the 40 million figure as symbolic of the love and enthusiasm shared by photography enthusiasts – professionals and amateurs alike – for Nikkor lenses and a testimony to their extraordinary performance and reliability,' said the company's Tokyo office in a statement.
'Forty-eight years have passed since Nikon introduced the first Nikkor lens with F mount, together with our first SLR camera, the Nikon F,' added the company.

'At that time Nikkor lenses were attached not only to Nikon cameras - such as the Nikon 1 introduced in 1948 - but also to Leica cameras and later to Contax cameras,' explained Nikon.

The current Nikkor lens stable consists of 57 models _________________
