About us
The First Lensman is a store dealing exclusively in the beautifully engineered products that came out of the Japanese camera industry from the 1960's to the early 1990's. The main product line is manual focus Nikon Nikkor Prime and Zoom lenses and film cameras, although I also stock Minolta, Canon and Olympus products from time to time.
I have extensive contacts throughout the camera industry, so I can get hold of most things. Browse and enjoy.Ian
Update on shipping to Europe.
Due to the recent Customs changes introduced by Brexit, shipments to Europe are being delayed by up to 3 months or being lost altogether. I have therefore reluctantly withdrawn the option to buy direct and have instead directed all international purchases via the Ebay Global Shipping Programme which is a selectable option on all of my listings. Please contact me if you have any questions about this.

Seller feedback (1,710)
- 7***j (3)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseTruly one of the best sellers I have purchased from on this platform. The description of the item was spot on, as soon as I purchased the item I had a message from the seller to say that he would post it ASAP. The item arrived very quickly. The item was well packaged preventing any damage in transit. I think considering it is hard to get this level of quality outside of Japan, the items are well worth the price! Also the YouTube videos showing the item being tested is a really nice touch!
