The others have hit most of the salient points.
That gray lever is the release that allows you to twist the lens and separate it from the M2 extension tube.
From the picture the aperture blades might not be quite symmetrical. Try moving the aperture ring back and forth while watching the blades. Make sure they move fluidly and symmetrically.

Thanks. Will do.

Thank you. I did not realize that it had an extension. I was curious as to what the gray lever was.

What I was asking was if this lens was a normally found, ("regular") used 55mm lens, or as this post has played out, something much better, being a very well-liked macro lens. Sorry if I confused you with what I was asking.

WOW! Thank you. Much valuable info.

Thanks. Found this out before I read your post. Might have to find some 35mm film and try it out on the F. I like close up photography, especially flowers.

Looks like it is a Pre-AI lens and will not mount on a D7200. SNAP!!

Thanks. Would it be compatible with a D7200 realizing it would be manual focus?

I picked up an absolutely mint Nikon F in the Nikon carry case (leather?) w/a carrying/neck strap that has a Nikor-S Auto 1:1.4 50mm lens mounted on it plus this lens. I am unsure what exactly this lens is. Anyone care to enlighten me? Many thanks.

It is safe and will not be touched by me. James

Is it compatible with a DX lens and does it come with the original box & paperwork? If so I'll take it. Please advise. Thanks.
