Not too bad, Jack.


My memory is not the greatest, but did the museum switch the display of the B17, or is that a new coat of paint and details?

The 85mm HC is good for corny portraits too!

The HC is an excellent lens.

I have the 1.4 as my newest 85mm, so when you have a hammer everything becomes an 85mm photo.

All at 1.4.

Thank you Ken, here is another nail, she came back home today from several weeks of very successful testing.

Light was harsh, hitting the front of the 85mm 1.4, but the lens handled this well, the camera could not deal with the dynamic range of the sunset reflection from her hull.

This B-17 is Memphis Belle, put on display May of 2018 after a very long restoration

https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Visit/Museum-Exhibits/Fact-Sheets/Display/Article/195966/boeing-b-17f-memphis-belle/

Local PBS station made a documentary about it, too, pretty good.

That 2nd photo seems odd perspective for a 105.

Hi, everyone:

Laura, fantastic to see you posting photos of classic speedy flying objects. I missed them.

Rafael, congrats on receiving an 85/1.4 that meets your expectations. It looks pristine! That is one lens that has always had my interest.

The folks at Central Park do this annually and it feels like spring meeting fall. It was very crowded last Saturday and had to wait a long spell for the crowds to briefly clear.





Checking out the close up capability of the 28/2.8.





Fuji S5 + 28/2.8 AIs
Take care,
Serge

Thanks Serge, It's amazing what a second day off in the week will let me accomplish

Your second flower shot, the pink one, definitely jumps out at me. Not a fan of pink, per se, but that one has a wallop.

Yeah, now that I think about it... Maybe I had my 15 on and forgot to change?

Thanks, Laura. I will try to post something other than the pink next time.

Thank your boss for me.

Have fun,

Nice images Reagan. Was this from the first, second, or third D700?

Some from our hike on Po Toi Island.

This is the most southerly of the islands around HK and takes around 40 mins to get there on a ferry. Only one ferry there and back a day four days a week. We went on a Thursday, and if you miss the ferry back you are sleeping under the stars there until Saturday when the next one comes I think there's only 100 people living there now and are mostly fisherpeople. It's a nice peaceful place and pretty popular for camping.

I took the F3HP with Portra 400 @ 320 & 24/2.8 N.C. + 35/2 O + 50/1.4 S.C + 85/1.8 H.C. I metered for the green which was usually around 1/500 and used a 2-stop GND for the sky in some cases. I think there was around 3 stops difference between the sky and the mountains but this is no big deal for negative film.

The file says 7R4.xxxx

Wasn't that a beautiful sunset
Too bad I won't have a Nikon next week
but I am working on it

Question for all the experts here, opinions on the best body for these old Nikon classics?

For digital, I’d say a Nikon D780 as I don’t really like adapters. For film, I guess the best is a Nikon F6

Many love the Df.
