Hmmm, an easy one:
Non-AI Nikkors are still excellent, and often very cheap used
(and can be AI-converted for about $30 each). These are often
under $100 in good shape:
- 105mm f2.5 early (chrome) version
- 135mm f3.5 any version
- 135mm f2.8 early (bigger) version
- 200mm f4 early (bigger) version
(all these are excellent lenses, good enough for pro-level work)

Oooops!!! Forgot:
- 100mm f2.8 E
- 135mm f2.8 E
- 75-150mm f3.5 E
- 70-210 f4 E
- 80-200mm f4.5
(first-class optics! [though the price of the last three
will probably exceed $100 each...])
BTW, you may find interesting my Nikkor evaluation list
(on my web page, under "I babble"), which includes older
Nikkors.
