A Revolution in Glass

Before there were Nikon cameras, there was NIKKOR - a precision optics company predating the first Nikon camera by over a decade. From its very first camera lens in 1933, Nikon has been tirelessly dedicated to crafting optical excellence with uncompromising clarity, quality and reliability. From the depths of the ocean to the furthest reaches of space, NIKKOR glass has always been the eyes of Nikon

Precision Glass Moulding

In its ongoing pursuit of excellence in lens manufacturing, Nikon developed a special moulding technique that is effective for medium to large diameter Aspherical lens elements, which were previously considered difficult to mould. Precision Glass Moulding (PGM) is the meticulous process where optical glass is softened by heating, then shaped in an Aspherical mould made of special heat-resistant material. This technology has become widely adopted in the manufacture of Aspherical camera lens elements.

Aspherical Lens Element Design

In 1968, Nikon introduced the first camera lens to use an Aspherical lens element. These lens elements have complex curved surfaces, where the radius of curvature changes to optimise light transmission and correct distortions that occur in normal spherical lenses. They also offer superior resolution performance and contribute to a lighter and smaller lens design.
