A few more from the air show in IR. I had to mod a B+W filter to become a 39mm drop in filter that now fits Nikon's telephoto lenses.
Color shots with a Z7 and a 600mm f5.6 (695nm+)
B&W shots with a D750 and a 300mm f2.8 (830nm+)

TheOtherKav,
These are really something else. I was thinking about doing the same mod to a 39mm drop in filter, but even with a 720mm screw on filter there is nothing I can see through the view finder. How are you getting the D750 + 830nm centered on the jets? Best guess, rapid fire, or pull filter then let it drop? Great work!

Thanks everyone! I am very happy with how they turned out.

So the Z7 used the filter. Because you are using a EVF at all times you can see through the filter with ease. That camera has been full spectrum converted. So it can see UV, visible light, and infrared. When you filter it to specific wavelengths you can still see then in the EFV.
My D750 has been modded to only see IR above 830nm. The the OVF works like normal. But you still need to focus it in live view. So that camera was focused to infinity in live view, the focus locked, and ran in manual all day long. Every other hour or so, I'd re check focus on both cameras. As the sun was beating down on the lenses they would expand (I'm assuming) from the heat. Making things noticeably out of focus.
What about nikon nikkor 300mm f / 2.8 ai-s ?
Something to have ? I look at the older Ai-s with the nearest close limit 4 meters the newer version is 3m or 10 feet ? Anything else that sets these apart? optical? and has anyone tried it on Sony E bodys
I was close to buying a Nikon 300mm f / 4.5 ED-IF AI-s the other day but unfortunately it was sold ;(
Wondering if I should buy some Nikon lenes again
I'm just wondering if my eyes still works well for MF
105/2.5. Adirondack dream. It is becoming a distant memory, remembering kids voices echoing. I played around with Nik Silver Efex. I finally see the point of having a software like this
What a beauty! George is right, don't turn your back. Wouldn't it be great if Nikon came out with a digital version EXACTLY like the F3 with the the F-mount?

Don't ask me, I'm in the same process regarding the 300mm. I'm sure someone will weigh in soon.

My last photos on here has some shots with my 300/2.8ED. I think it's a great lens, and use it a fair bit. I think they are a good bang for the buck. (All my prime lenses above 135mm are manual focus to save money).
