  • Light meter not working? Without the coupling prong (rabbit ears), the aperture is not transmitted to the Photomic viewfinder of your Nikon F or F2.
  • Lost original part? Many used Pre-AI lenses lack this small but important component for analogue light metering.

Scope of delivery

  • 1x Meter Coupling Prong ("Rabbit ears")
  • 2x M1.4x2.4 screws

Technical specifications

  • Material: Technical plastic (PLA+)

Description

This part replaces the characteristic aperture coupling prong, better known as "rabbit ears," on early Nikon Nikkor lenses (Pre-AI / Non-AI). It establishes the mechanical connection to the light meter pin on classic cameras such as the Nikon F (Photomic), F2 (Photomic), or the Nikkormat series. The part is purely functional for light metering and ensures that your vintage camera correctly recognises the set aperture again.

Compatibility

Fits Nikon Nikkor Pre-AI (Non-AI) lenses that were originally equipped with rabbit ears, including:

  • Nikkor-S Auto 50mm f/1.4
  • Nikkor-P Auto 105mm f/2.5
  • Nikkor-S Auto 35mm f/2.8
  • Nikkor-H Auto 28mm f/3.5
