Picked up a used DF on our B&S forums here.
Just a quick shoot with impatience kids(mine lol).
Really, really like what I see from this sensor. Can't wait to get
more time with it and rebuild my glass library. I wish I would have
never sold all my gear awhile back

Vey cool Ayas! What a wonderful event that must have been to experience. Chicago always has something special going on. Thank you for sharing it with us... you captured it very well!

Thank you so much Don! Indeed it was. The number of people that showed up and the energy of the crowd was amazing.

The projection will be ongoing after sunset for 10 out of 12 months - until December this year. So if anyone is in town stop by and check it out

This is the one, I was struggling with Nisi 100x100 filters. I wanted to use polarizer, and ND, but I had only 10-stop ND, I wish I had 6-stop ND.
Beside that stop number challenge, there is a serious issue, or better say some kind of purple reflection, when you use two filters at the time.
It's been corrected, but I was struggling a lot.
I think, I'm gonna get a Breakthrough polarizer with 6-stop ND in one, it's been available for some time.

I predict that you are really going to love this camera! I bought mine new back in 2014 and absolutely love it. Works great with everything from vintage Nikkors to modern Zeiss glass.

Looking forward to seeing more from you

I also have the Nisi and the Lee Filter systems. I get the same reflective issues when I use my 6 or 10 stop filters behind my neutral grad filter. You can also get the same issues if the eyepiece isn't covered during long exposures.

To make 100% sure I don't get the reflection issues, I shoot all the filters separately and blend them in photoshop afterwards. Although I'm not using the polarizer with my 10 stop, just my neutral grad and 10 stop. Sometimes when pressed for time I use gaffers tape and surround the filter gaps to block out all the extra light, but even then the reflections happen sometimes.

You've probably already done all the things I've mentioned, so hopefully I'm not imposing with the info. The polarized 6 stop is also on my list from breakthrough, I've already purchased the 6 and 10 stops from them and they're excellent.

Don, I think so too!

I actually shot with the XT2 for awhile after selling my D810/D500. I thoroughly enjoyed shooting the manual control system of the Fuji.
What I couldn't get use to was the EVF. So I went back to the D500 for awhile but then ultimately just sold everything when I decided to take a break from photography.
I also missed that FF look of the files and I just alsways liked shooting true to what the lens FL is(for some reason). So the DF for me just makes sense with it's OVF, manual controls, and FF (beautiful 16mp) sensor.
The icing on the cake is that this is one handsome camera body

My only concern with the DF is its AF system but having shot the D600 for a couple of years I understand it's limitations. Which really isn't limiting as many make it seem.
Actually I was shooting in my dim livingroom early this morning and it seemed to be grabbing focus better than I remember in these dim situations with the D600.

Now the expensive part, glass..
