[QUOTE="Brian, post: 254668, member: 17621"] What type of photography do you plan on doing, what cameras have you used so far, and what Legacy equipment do you have? I bought Leica to use with a lot of rangefinder lenses going back to 1934, full-frame and RF coupled. I bought the Df to use with Nikon F-mount lenses going back to 1959, through the lens focus with the lens wide-open. I have mirrorless cameras, don't like focusing with the lens stopped down. The low-light performance of the Df is an amazing bonus, it plus fast lenses- wow. A 16MPixel sensor is well matched to older optics; but I have several Micro-Nikkor lenses that would have been a good match for the D800e. If you get the D800- be prepared to layout more money for top of the line lenses. [/QUOTE]
