Re: Manual Focus Nikon Glass


Wanted to share an image with you. Nothing spectacular about it, just a ho-hum shot of a deer in the woods off my deck at the house.

But... Some details about it. It was well into dusk. Deer usually cross through the yard this time of day and I was waiting to see them. You could barely detect movement in the woods and definitely could not see details. I had the 200mm/f2 Ai on the Z6. So just for fun I tried shooting with it. MAN was I surprised. When looking through the viewfinder it was like looking in the woods during daylight! There is no way I would have gotten this shot through an optical viewfinder and to be honest not sure if an autofocus lens would have been able to focus in such low light especially shooting through many trees and branches.

Oh yeah. Look at the EXIF data... Handheld at 1/40 sec and pretty clean at ISO4000 . Game changer for using old fast lenses.
