I've just sold my Df - no regrets, no need to keep it as I am not going to be using this anymore.
Thus I no longer have any Nikon cam. This situation might change when Nikon finally decides to intoduce the long-awaited mirrorless camera....time will tell....
Sony A7Rii + PK13 tube (27.5mm) + Nikkor 600/5.6N ai-s EDIF @ f/8 to f/11 + tripod; ISO 200 at 1/25 to 1/320s, ~4.2m of distance, ~47% cropped (20/42MP).
A little bit less crazy combo than the 800 = 2x PN11 tube
Do not have a 105 currently but have owned several versions in the past. Here from the archive are the 105 2.5 Ai, 105 2.5 Ais, and 105 f4 Micro respectively. Thanks for looking.

Lots of 105s! And what a lens for grandkid portraits!!
I had a 105 out and about yesterday, on a very pleasant, warm, sunny day in the dead of January winter. Quite a change from 2 weeks ago. That was with a film camera though, so it will be a while before I get any results.
In the meanwhile, here's one with a different focal length, the 8.5cm f2 S-mount Nikkor lens, on SP. With Ilford FP4+ 125 film
I needed some lightweight gear in my backpack when I did a first test of my homemade bike fender yesterday. Our snow went to mud overnight, but fenders work in snow and mud. Passed the test.
So I took a Rokinon 85mm and the Nikon 24mm f/2.8 AIS with my trusty D600 that lost its battery grip to be less of a big lump on my back. I ended up shooting mostly the 85mm, but there are a handful of ok images with the 24mm as well
you are looking at my Wisconsin winter commuter, a vehicle much more capable in snow than most SUVs. I even have dedicated studded snow tires for it, except so far there has hardly been any snow this winter. The big feels like a dump truck compared to my road bikes
Nikon V1 + FT1 adapter+ Nikkor-P 105mm f/2.5 ai'd & CPU'd hand held, 1/1000 to 1/1250s, ISO 100, 50% cropped (5/10Mb).
Beside the exif and focus confirmation dot at the camera, the cpu allows the camera to use intermediary f/ apertures. Even at f/4.5 the bokeh is not bad. The bird was just 3-4m away.
Tiny blue sky hole in the stormy clouds - 6 shots pano:
Good pics all around, especially enjoying the 105 lens.
Special callout for the grandkid pics.
Scott's winter scene with the 105.
That's a cool winter bike, Peter.
The "Nigella" is awesome, Colin. Have never seen such a flower.
Samy, great street pictures. Especially the guitarist.
The 105 collection is special, Leighton. See what you're missing without a Nikon body?
Howdy fellers, not been around as I crashed my Nissan pathfinder on the 5 freeway, airbags went off, car is total loss, i was not at fault and did not suffer any damage. The whole thing was stressful, going through the accident and having to get a new car when the old one was perfectly fine.
Jeff continues to paint with light, Let me attempt a cheap emulation.
Nikkor 5.8CM, polarized filter and D3. We continue to get no rain, but I cannot complain when Cape Town is going trough much worse.
