For info the lens diagram is the AF 105mm not the ais

X-Tian

A double gauss with even two corrector elements. It is pure blur & sharpness beauty. This is so great, i am falling in love with that lens. I will get one.

Is this lens compatible with nikon d5200

I know it will not auto focus and aperture has to be set manually

A7

No time measurements possible with D5200. But pictures can be shot.
All functions are manually, no information before the picture is taken. After taking the picture you see the result and you need to adjust right settings. Practically not possible for normal photography.
If you want supportet this lens you need D7x00 or FX format Nikon bodies or Sony A6x000 or A7x.
I have it combined with Sony A7 and I enjoy the combination.

One of my favourite lenses that I enjoy using on both my DSLR and my Nikon F3
