			So... The company was known as Nippon Kogaku K.K, I already knew and easy to find but Nikon is a name give to small cameras in the 1940's. Nikkor is the name selected for lenses in the 1930's, probably using KK from Nippon Kogaku K.K. 
		
		
		
		
		
		
			All makes sense - Thanks chaps ![]() I am going to be picky and state AF-S teleconverters (lenses) do not carry Nikkor name but are branded Nikon!! - does that make any sense!!

			No definitive answer yet Stephen.  
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
		
	
	Found this link, a fair bit of which applies because of my age. Perhaps we need a more up to date version for younger members of the club.   http://medfmt.8k.com/mf/nikongeek.html Don  |

 The best answer I can give, with the lack of other definitive info, is that TC's are lens accessories rather than primary lenses. Don  |
