Having fun with the Df & K3 prism. I was luke warm at first but it's growing on me. Took a trip to the local camera shop, playing around with the 105/1.8 and the Voigtlander 58/1.4.

Incidentally, just bought a Nikkor 5.8cm f/1.4 but can't find much info/thoughts on it, other than there seems to be a preference vs the slightly later 50mm f/1.4 non-ai. Any info in this group?


The 5.8CM was the first 1.4 for the Nikon F. Very different rendition to later 1.4 lenses and cannot be really compared, it is not a lens for regular use, but for special look, as these photos show.
