Had a couple minutes before dinner. Wanted the Nikkor-S 5.8cm f1.4 non-ai and I pressed the 7DmkII into camera duty. It roughly is 93mm EFL on this 1.6x crop body. I expected to lose some of the dreamy bokeh, but it held up well. All are wide open at f1.4
Funny story here. I named this "Convergence".

A few days ago I picked up a developed roll of Kodacolor 200 I started using at least two months ago. They were taken with the Nikkormat FTn but I couldn't tell you which lens each was shot with.

My sweetie wanted to go to a local organic farm stand. Since we were in the neighborhood we also went for a walk through Brewster's Woods. I took the 200mm f/4 Q Auto. I've owned it for over 50 years. It's still one of my favorites. Not quite the super-tele for some bird shots but oh so sharp and oh so convenient.
