This post is to show Jay working distances for the 31.25X:

This photo does not show the whole setup, but the rest is just a camera on Nikon bellows:

Here is the 31.25X result from the setup above. One needs better alignment for the lens to be useful. Stacking SW may help, 31.25x is too much for a watch.

But this showed distances as you asked, Jay.

This watch is the same as Abe's. (Lincoln). 159 years and keeping good time. Me thinks the Nikkor MF lenses can match that.

What always fascinated me was how well my friend was able to take photos with this setup on film. I remember he had a DIY reflector for his flash that made a nice even light around whatever his target was.

What a great collection Rafael!




Anyone want to venture a guess on the price of admission? Tour hours?

I bought this lens only because it was new and $60 Kevin, but it is well beyond my ability to use!

Wandering around Gatlinburg a bit while getting food etc. (here for work). More fun to stay off the main drag.

I’m really liking the Zfc and auto sync to my phone with the small jpegs. Only issue is overload when I just walk and shoot…

20 year old Tri-X, exposed just days ago, and souped in Df96 Monobath. Nikon FM version #2 with Nikkor-H.C 50mm f2.0 on my studio light table (testing synch cord, and wireless trigger) I was going to title this "If I Could Catch Time In A Bottle", but I think in a literal sense I did. So, the title is

Ray, technically does pass the 500 threshold but then it’s not too far over. Just depends on how technically perfect an image has to be. I’m not sure if you’re using MF legacy glass technical perfection and sharpness is priority 1!

Rafael, you framing and editing on the floral shots is about perfect. Curious to know your developing and sharpening?


Simple, Nikon NX Studio. Vivid setting add contrast and vignetting. Sharp setting on sw about 20%. Under exposed a little.

How about a dual selfie taken with the lens ?

Sorry I've been AWOL. I wasn't going to mention it, but I thought better of it since we are like family and you deserve an explanation. My cancer has returned and I'm undergoing procedures to eradicate a couple of small tumors on my liver. Once we're through with all of this I'll be back with my usual "blabbermouth" ways!

Aw Leighton, this is not what I had in mind. I'm sorry to hear this but wish you a full recovery and eradication of these.

These are great. Lovely atmosphere. Well done. Unfortunately, the AF-D ones belong in another thread as this one is only for fully manual Nikkors.
