Nikon's perspective-control shift lens — 28mm f/3.5 with 11mm shift for architecture on film.
The Nikon Nikkor 28mm f/3.5 PC Shift is Nikon's original perspective-control lens — a manual shift lens providing 11mm of shift movement for correcting converging verticals in architectural photography. No tilt capability.
Optically good — designed for the shift function with adequate image circle. The 11mm shift corrects converging verticals when shooting buildings. No tilt — shift only. Manual focus and aperture. The 28mm is a practical wide angle for architecture.
Nikon F mount. Manual focus and aperture. 11mm shift movement. No tilt. 72mm filter thread. Approximately 385g. Full-frame coverage with extra image circle for shift. Pre-AI, AI, or AI-S coupling depending on version.
Available used at budget to mid-range prices. The PC-E 24mm f/3.5D ED added tilt and electronic aperture — a massive improvement. This original PC 28mm is shift-only. For architectural film photographers or those wanting affordable shift capability.
