Cuong, Almass, John beautiful shots!
@Cuong love the 180/2.8 APO shots and their making me want to get my copy Leitax'd for my D800E.
Need to also learn to convert my 2x APO extender too.

Great shots. I especially like the first one. What car is that tire in the last one on?

Thanks Carsten. Not sure which model as I didn't speak with the owner but it's a 'bare metal' (ie no paint) Ford hot rod. Probably '32, just guessing. A few more of the same car.

32 Deuce coupe(1932 Ford coupe) with some hotrodding done to it,
definitely chopped(roof pillars had a section removed), possibly channeled(a section of body is removed so it sits lower on the frame) though I can't see for sure, and a relatively modern interior.
Nice series John.

Thanks Wayne, I am faced with the same question about Leitax. For Canon, I can use detachable adapter so that I can have the option to use the lens at 180m or use 1.4x APO extender for longer reach.

I also saw that ManWearPants had indicated that he had modified a 67mm adapter to use the Cokin P system with the lens. I have sent him a PM asking about this. I hope that he will respond and provide me with information about what he did so that he could use the Cokin P filters.

If you are referring to the 35-70mm, the Cokin 77mm ring has an inside diameter that just slips over the hood. I discovered this years ago when I had the 35-70mm. You just need to put four evenly pieces of electrical tape or similar on the inside of the ring to provide a bit of friction.
In regards to a polarizer, the front element does not rotate, but you need to remove the screw on hood to turn the polarizer.
