I have tried in vain looking for an instruction manual for the Nikon 135mm f2.8. I have only found some Youtube videos and a few descriptions about the lens but I can not find much, any help?

I don't find the manual either but there isn't much you need to know in order to use it. I have the lens.

I have this epic Nikkor... built like a Swiss Watch... A joy to shoot with!

If you have any specific questions on using this lens, perhaps in conjunction with a particular body, ask away. The old owners manuals didnt actually say much.

Hello,
At this moment I have no questions but its nice to know you are there.

I have came across about six entries on the web so far. I will be putting the lens on my Flickr site with some comments and links that I can find for other users.

Thanks for the offer of help though.

The manual is actually a sheet of paper in several languages so it's short.

Put it on the body, focus. (I have one, that is what I do, great lens!)

Thanks, for the info., I have the Nikon 135 f/3.5 version, sharp and easy lens to use, I just wish they made the newer lenses like they made the older lenses, no plastic all metal that is why the old ones are still around today, they are built like tanks.
