Hi all. Great stuff and congratulations on getting past 6000. I haven't been shooting stills very much lately but have been spending my spare time back in some video projects. Still with Nikkor lenses adapted though. BTW, $.02 here... The Fuji X-T2 video capabilities rock!!!

Curtis - Great to see you back! You have lost nothing in your Df skills Good luck with your restoration.

Scott - Nice shot with the F2. Man sorry to hear you dropped it. If you are in Atlanta, I hear the Camera Service Company in Smyrna is pretty good at repair.

Rafael - loving the bokeh in the walk of fame sidewalk shots. The 35mm f/2 O is a great lens. I have been using that over my f/1.4 more and more lately.

John - wish I had the landscape to use long telephoto like you do. Always good to see them. Did you ever get the 200-400?

Kristian - love you shots around Malmö. Seems to be a beautiful area.

Leighton - Good to see you back outside shooting some. See you are a fellow Ford guy. I couldn't justify a F250 even though that is what I really wanted, so I settled for a white F150 4x4.

Huss - nice work with the 45P. Curious as to what it actually is.

Phillippe - agree with others, I really like the last shot of the man with the beer.

Andy - amazing details in your macro shots!

Chris - If your wife gets the bug you may have a hard time getting the Df back. Good family time

Re: fisheye correction... put me in the Fisheye Hemi plugin camp. I really like that tool.

Jim - best wishes and hope for a speedy recovery.

Hope everyone has a good week.

George

Good to see you again George, and thanks.

Yea, my old 97 Dodge finally needed to be replaced. I found this 06 F-250 with only 71,000 miles on it for a great price. So I bought it knowing how Reagan would turn up his nose at it.

It's the fifth Ford truck I've owned.

I'm afraid that's not going to happen.
In our upcoming holiday she's going to use the V1 and that's already a big step up.

Good to see that everything is running smooth at this wonderful thread.

Leighton, I really hope you will recover fully as soon as possible. And congrats to your new (and by European standards mighty) Ford.

Here's a quick and dirty scan of a quick handheld shot of a small-town post-office. Spent a few hours on Easter Sunday to visit small towns and villages in my area.
Shot a few frames with different MF-Nikkor's too - for the old post office the PC-Nikkor 35/2.8 had to work on my old FM-2.

Fords do seem to last a long long time... my 03 Ranger still looks like new too.

if it is a 5cm S it fits like in the picture, it it is an H you need to get the ai kit or cut the aperture ring.

Set lens to 2,0, mount, dial in -3 compensation, will not close past 8.0.

Happy 6,000 pages, gang!

Great to see Leighton feeling better and getting out for some shooting.

Curtis, nice to see your wonderful flowers.

James M. thanks for stopping by, and best wishes for a speedy recovery.

Georg, wonderful to see you and your fine work with the PC lens.

Here are a few from a Southern California wildflower season that doesn't want to stop. Three with the 105/2.5 and the final image with the 50/1.2.

Cheers,
Jeff
