Of course you're welcome, good to see you haven't lost your touch, Ben.
Thanks Chris and Peter.
I message Curtis on Flickr but he ignores me. Maybe if I poke a stick at him here he might rouse.

This is what I've been saying for YEARS... Ben is a provocateur who enjoys poking sticks at people...
And you know full well I HAVE responded to your comments on Flickr. It is true I don't spend much time there, but that is simply because this thread suits my tastes so much better. I turned to Flickr only because Picasa crashed and burned. It is a fine place to host images, but this is the place I prefer to talk about them.
AND, you're always welcome on this thread Ben. You achieved lifetime privileges by virtue of the fact you shared Nikki with us, your lovely 85 f/1.8 H.C. AI lens that so inspired folks that many from our fellowship bought a copy for themselves. It took me about three years to find a really clean copy, but eventually I did...
......
I searched for a copy with the Nikon AI conversion kit until I finally invested in a Df. Now I can handle pre-AI lenses and don't have to pay a premium for a converted lens. Thanks for the inspiration.
Ahh... show off of the 85 HC
I did found a nice one with AI-ring.
And it has a nice addition as well with the chip.
I would say; ready for a Nikon mirrorless FX camera.
