I'm certain this was an honest oversight, and I hate to be THAT guy Jim, but just pointing out one of the rules stated by the OP in the first post of this thread:

Jannik Peters wroteThe only rules:

- Only images that have been taken by Nikon FX cameras.


Sorry for the oversight. Fair is fair, and your point is well taken.

Nice ones, Jim. Didn't expect to see you in these parts. Welcome!


Thanks Rico!

I've had Nikon cameras over the last ten years or so. Currently have the D800e. But only recently did I get one of the new Commlite Pro AF adapters to mount Nikon lenses on Sony bodies (which I am using more than my Nikon and Canon bodies). So I naturally looked for an appropriate thread for Nikon Images (general Nikon gear of some kind) as are on the Sony and Canon forums in one degree or another.

I miss stepped and seem to have posted wrongly in this thread. Perhaps someone will start a threat that allows the use of Nikon lenses or Nikon bodies with Alt lenses. I do have a number of Nikon lenses, and I like to use them for their rendering.

Thanks for the welcome to publish images here on the Nikon forum more often.

@Gunzorro These branded forums can be quite exclusionary at times. FM Alt is open to anything, so just post to the granddaddy thread Alternative Image Thread.

Thanks Rico.

I just started a thread here on the Nikon forum as an open forum for any and all Nikon imaging. So long as a photographer uses at least one Nikon imaging item (camera or lens, or both!) it makes the cut.

I rather dislike the "Best Of. . ." threads, as it places a burden on the photographer to only show their best works, whereas I prefer allowing the photographer to post anything they might feel is of interest to others.

I used to post a fair amount on the Alt Lens thread, being a multi-brand owner, but participation has been down the last few years, and following the Sony forum example, there might be better participation here for people with Nikon gear.

We'll see if it provides a sanctuary for creative impulses and sharing here on the Nikon forum.

I appreciate your input and your wonderful images!

Hmm, that would rule out images made with a TS-E 135 attached to A7ii with SB-5000 on top! I do things like that.

Ha-ha!! Now that I am Emperor of an Image Thread, I can set the rules aside! You are welcome to post any of your striking images as long as you have a Nikon component in the make-up.

Hopefully you don't wind up with a problem child in that thread though. The MF Nikon Glass thread had a couple over the years.

Charles -- I love your images with that 28/1.4! Really impressive rendering and subject choices.

I'm sure at some point I'll pick up a D850 when used prices go down. All results indicate it is the best Nikon to date.

Thank you very much Jim The 28E is truly a superb lens and is one of my all time favorites along with the 105E, 70-200E and the speciality lens 58G. I just acquired the 28E just less than a week ago which is to replace my 24 and 35 Art lenses so I am getting used to the 28 FOV again. With film Nikons in the past the 28mm was my favorite street lens so I just need to remember take another 2 or steps closer and include layering to the composition. It is for my trip to visit family in Spain next week so my kt to go is D850, 28E, 58G and 105E and for Marisa D750, 50/1.8G and 85/1.8G.

Depending on your style of photography the D810 I still think is an awesome camera. The 36MP RAW files are just sublime.
