Some interesting art in the last few posts - Huss being very 1960's with the B&W. Good to see the theme on "light" and "dark' too. Ben you haven't lost your touch either
Some garden shots with the Z5 and 80-200 f4 on a PN-11 extension. To my eye they can't compare for sharpness to macros using the 105 2.8 Vr micro-nikkor but it's probably an unfair comparison.
I know what you mean about these old Nikkors. I don't even own an AF lens anymore. In fact, I just traded my whole Fuji kit in on another camera, should be here next week.
The suspense is killing me! What could make you give up your Fuji?

Film at 11. Surely the self proclaimed blabbermouth can't keep it secret all the way through next week. Let's hope it's not shipped Fedex or it might be a long wait for all of us.
Maybe someone should start a betting pool to predict the camera model and announcement time.

OK, now you've gone and done it Ray. NOW I'll have to wait!
Colin,
Thanks for the words of encouragement. I suspect the one non ribbon cable. Will have to round up one of my ohm meters before I attempt again.

Jim,
Don't fret. I'd still put money on the ribbon cables being the culprit. Been there done that......

Thanks Leighton! I do keep AF lenses around, I have a 4 & 8 year old… I don’t want exclusively OOF shots of them, especially the 4 year old.
What did you go with? Z5? Edit: Jeez, you’ve started a firestorm. Could only be worse if you started shooting Canon FD.

Big move Leighton!
Some sort of Nikon Z variety? D780?
I really like that D780. If I was shooting digital I'd be tempted to get one if just using NMF lenses. No adapters needed and the Live view is basically that of a Z camera.
A rescan of a double exposure taken in 2014 with a Nikon FM2n & 50/1.2 Ai-S (Fuji Superia Venus 800).
I have literally hundreds of rolls I like to slowly go over and rescan again from before I started using NegativeLabPro. In the end I got half decent using NikonScan4 and ColorPerfect for inversion and processing, but NLP makes such a dramatic difference ... especially with colour negs.
I know we're all shorthanded, but yeah, FedEx hasn't been that great around here even before the pandemic hit. I cringe when I see something shipping FedEx.

I would put my money on this. I see that a speedbooster is available for F to Z (though it's half the cost of a Zfc). Maybe there are other less costly ones.
