Ok. Time for the first official batch processed from the trip to Vancouver.
The view from our hotel room.
A7RII - FD 50/1.8
A7RII - EF 16-35/4L IS
And a quick question. How do you guys manage to post large images (I see ones that are definitely bigger than 1024 pixels)?
Anytime I try to upload larger images, I run afoul of the "File must not exceed 75Mb" rule.

Great shots Gregg
Actually it's an AI-P, I just learned, one of only two nikon lenses to have that designation. The other was the bargain 70K USD in the 90s 1200-1700 F/5.6:
The "P" means it has some electrical contacts, though these were the last new MF lenses introduced by Nikon, I think. Although the 1200-1700 was not widely used, they say it restored the Nikon reputation in the face of Canon innovations of the late 80's and elary 90s.
But I'm pretty psyched, considering the new Sony 500/4 is a mere 12K and supposedly the old 1988 Nikkor is only a shade off the latest 500s in the deep corners. Bjorn has it rated a straight 5, and raves. My hit rates with the 300 are better than I anticipated, so maybe I can make the 500 work a bit Also it is reported to reach 700 with a 1.4 TC with little loss, well we'll see 
Here is an experienced wildlife shooter writing about the 500/4 P:
"I believe the 500 p is, for the money, the best value in telephotos today, period. Buy it, shoot it, then sell it when you upgrade to the 500 vr. . . You can not go wrong with the 500 p, what you will learn from using it, while capturing great images, is worth the small relative investment. I use to shoot that lens a lot and it does work well with TC's as long as you have the proper camera support. BTW, i think the foot is the weakest link on the lens, it's too small, but it's easy to deal with. . ."
Tony Bynum
Anyway, I've been unhappy 300 and up despite numerous attempts with various lenses. This is the first 300 I really like:
Shilo Bokeh by unoh7, on Flickr
Black Ears by unoh7, on Flickr
Situational Awareness by unoh7, on Flickr
The 300/2.8 AIS is famous for nice Bokeh This is the neighbor dog, and she is difficult to photograph very close as she will invariably come right to you. But my fast 300mm portrait lens solves that issue
BTW both of these lenses, the 300/2.8 AIS and the 500/4 P were produced until 2005.

This weekend was a time to catch up celebrating my father in law's 88th birthday, and another family member who just turned 95!
My two lenses that are fast becoming my favourites, FE 35/1.4 and 85L II
A7rII and FE 35/1.4 85L II

To everyone else - love this thread the most out of all the threads.... saves me from having to use an A7 camera (sorry I had to zing it
) and spend all this money to travel to these great locations 
Nice work!

Charlie...awesome dog pics! That bokeh from the 300 looks pretty smooth!! Handheld? It's a pretty big lens, right?
And after your explanation, looking more forward to the 500/4P images!
Charles...more beautiful family pics. My Italian grandfather(before he passed) had that same fantastic, "I love life" look that your father in law has!! And looking at him, sparks memories of when he(my GF) was around! Incredible!
