Lotsa great pictures on the last/first page!

Should finally send my loved X100 in for the sticky-aperture-fix. Tried the neat Fuji for some action today:

soccer-training for kids - X100, f/4, 1/640sec and still some motion blur

Wow, that is a great image! Great focus and just the right amount of blur.

Amazing shot Georg, Great timing and execution.

Beautiful shots of Colorado Andrew. Such quality from such a bargin of a lens. Colorado seems to have such a variety of landscapes.

A couple of Rugby pics from the Sigma 120-300mm VR. Match was the play-off of the 2nd from bottom in League B vs second from top in Leage C to see who would qualify for which league next year. My club won.

Much as I enjoy trying to shoot sports with a MF lens, for such an important match I wanted to make sure I maximised my chances of getting the critical moments.

So if I understand the this correctly you have to be a Nikon shooter that uses MF Nikon glass and post on a specific thread over at the Nikon board and then if you also use some other camera as well you're allowed to post in this thread?

I think this thread is about using any Nikon body, but using manual focus, non-Nikon lenses. Just third party manual lenses.

I feel a bit bad for posting stuff from my archive, but want to keep this thread alive.

The very first picture with a new to me Rolleicord III - it seems to work just fine.
Too bad - the Yellowfilter was still at home on my Minolta Autocord...

The OP said, " alt cameras & lenses ". Is a Nikon body an alt camera?

Still confused....

I see shots with Nikon body/non-Nikkor lens, Non-Nikon body/Nikkor lens...with MF lenses...is that the idea here?

my understanding is that you must be a poster to the MF nikkor thread in the nikon forum and pictures here are images that would not be acceptable in that forum, e.g. nikon camera w/ non-nikon lens, nikon lens on non-nikon camera, or just no nikon gear at all.

it does seem rather contrived to me. why not just contribute to the alt forum as well as the nikon forum instead of trying to make a segregated alt thread for nikon forum people?

I don't know, but I agree, it's almost comically complicated. If I have to break out my crib notes to figure out if I'm even allowed to post comments, much less pictures, then the point seems to be already lost.

Nice thread. So this is where my Nikon MF lens on NEX pictures go I don´t see why there is such a hussle in trying to figure out what goes where. Seems perfectly clear to me.

The NEX showed up yesterday, now I only have to wait for a memory card and a Nikon F adapter to show up. Both are ordered and on their way though.

Andrew, that Samyang 35mm seems to do really well on the D600.

I don't quite see the need for such quirky requirements. We have had the discussion about Nikkors on Nikon cameras before, and decided that manual focus Nikkors were alt, even on Nikons, simply because all other system lenses of the same age are. Doesn't make sense to punish Nikon for staying compatible when most break compatibility.

In any case, there are two basic interests in this forum: cameras and lenses. This is why there are so many RX1 and A7/A7R and MFT and Fuji X body threads, and so many Zeiss and Leica and Rokkor and so on lens threads. This thread caters to neither, so you don't know what you will find in here. Seems kinda useless to me.

There used to be a Nikkor lens thread, but it is off the front page now.

IMO this thread should be merged with the Alternative Image thread: https://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/597185
