The D700 and AF-S 18-35 ED I recently purchased.

I'm new to the D700 and I've run into a situation in Manual mode with a manual lens (Takumar). I set the shutter speed with the Command Dial and the f stop on the lens. I take a shot and the shutter speed changes to another setting, e.g., from 1/80 to 1/40 or 1/30 to 1/15. Pushing the shutter...

Drove over to Bozeman to try some night shooting with my new to me D700 and Pentax S-M-C Takumar 28mm f/3.5. I shot at 1/60 @ f/5.6 on Auto ISO which turned out to be 3200 most of the time. Yes there was some noise and I did use some NR but not as much as I thought I would. PP in LR 5.6...

As promised here is the anvil used to check wind speed. :D

Yes, the Kood adapter has a lens that allows infinity focus. I haven't noticed any deterioration in IQ. I have a cheaper adapter that's just terrible. Pentax S-M-C Takumar 28mm f/3.5 @ f/5.6. I imported the NEF as a DNG into Lightroom and exported the SOOC file as a jpeg.

The D700 arrived late last night. Here it is with a Pentax S-M-C Takumar 50mm f/1.4 mounted with a Kood adapter. I'll go out and shoot some with it later today. ;)

Not a Nikon shot (my D700 arrives today). A Sikorsky S-61 taken with a Pentax K-5, 1/30 @ f/11, ISO 100. It's tricky shooting so slow but it works for good prop blur.

I've just purchased a D700 and 18-35G so I'm a new member of the club. Hopefully they will arrive soon and I can start shooting. The body comes with the grip, two batteries, and charger. This will be the first FF digital that I'll shoot with. I did have a D2X for a while before giving it to my...

Greetings, I'm a 50 year Pentax shooter but I've dabbled with other brands such as Leica, Canon, Olympus, and Nikon. I started photography in 1962 at the USAF Photo School and have never really stopped shooting even after changing careers twice. Now I'm retired and spend my time shooting...
