The PC-Nikkor 28/3.5 shot at f/11 worked as predicted and delivered the „sunstars” I was looking for.
D750, the horizont is a bit skewed but I did worse in the past ;-)
This piece of woods close to the baltic sea is known as „Gespensterwald” - „spooky forest”.
Andy has inspired me to go and take some photos (with a MF lens) of my recently acquired Bavarian toy ...... maybe if it stops raining long enough.

Cheers Colin !
Here's official proof that I am a 50 odd year old divorced male. I absolutely love it ! even if it's only the 1.8 supercharged auto, great on the twisties and so well made. Not bad for a 16 year old car.
My 1st benz (as you know I've always been a Beemer driver).
Heated leather, you can even see the MB "Air Scarf" in the 1st pic (hot air on your neck from the vent in the head rests)

I think it's only fair that I add a photo while I'm here.
Sunset over the dunes. The shells in the foreground are the remnants of feasts eaten here by the indigenous peoples or as we now call them the Traditional Owners. These middens as they arre called can be up to 60 feet deep from many many centuries of feasting.
A trip to another antique store with the 85mm f1.4 ais today. Pictures will have to wait. Then to drop off belated birthday presents, and meet a new kitty named Larry. Fun! My not using the 85mm guilt has been relieved.
Pretty good Peter, get the revs up and it's pretty fast but it's the chassis that makes the difference, so low wide and stiff, just throw it into corners without braking and it grips.
Not as fast as my new motorcycle though which interestingly has 164 bhp compared to the cars 160 bhp !

Congrats and enjoy the car - how does it "pull" with a 1.8 engine ?
Yeah I heard that the British summer was over for another year !

I'm hoping to move next week to a room in a shared house in Kangaroo Point, Brisbane. Why KP? It has views of the Storey Bridge and the CBD (Central Business District) from the cliffs above the Brisbane River.

Since you asked about FM body... Here are some side by side.
And a couple showing how compact you can go while still keeping "Nikon on Nikon"
For interest of this thread only showing adapted lenses, but I tell you that kit 16-50Z makes for a compact package to give you a 25-75 equivalent grab and go.
All shot below with the Df and Micro-Nikkor 55/3.5
