[QUOTE="Borga Voffe, post: 542639, member: 41839"] Back in the 1980ies, I was crawling around, taking close up photos of Norwegian mountain flowers. Using my Nikon F3 and my nikkor 55 micro lens Got superb results on Kodachrome 25 .... then came the new century and the era of digital compacts. I sold the F3 in 2002, got an Canon G3, got kind of happy. Now, last month, on pure nostalgia. I bought a Nikon d7200 just for fun, suppose I have to much money, Im old and retired Fantastic! My old Nikkor lenses, like 43 86 zoom (the good 1982 ver) and that old workhorse of mine, the superb Nikkor 105 2.8 micro works BETTER on my new d7200!!!! I get pin point exposure, I get focus aid / these old ais lenses shall never be sold, They work better than ever :) Q; What settings should I apply in my d7200 to get the most of the 105 micro? Should I assign a U with a special set ? That 43 86 might not be used, as I hve just bought two cheap zoom lenses, the Tokina 12-28 and Nikkor 18-140. Very curious about how these modern hi tech gadgets will work in the field im a landscape photogr, not pro, I am just walking around in the Norwegian mountains photographing the scenery and the flowers. EDIT; I am a botanist. Got my MD in 1986. Systematic Botany. Thats why I am "crawling around" I had this "obsession" to get a decent photo of every plant species in Norway. Now, being retired, I have settled just the mountain flowers. [/QUOTE]
