[QUOTE="Ima93m4k3r, post: 561682, member: 42292"] Greetings, I'm new to this forum but allow me to say, regarding your problem of blurry photos with your 105/2.5 have you considered it may be your own eyesight? I own and use an early Nikkor 105/2.5 a with the coated lens and have found it (and each 105/2.5 or 105/2.8) a beautiful lens. Smooth as butter in the helicoids, quick to focus and rendering colour in a way no modern version has IMHO surpassed. I am now in a wheelchair, and 64 so the "babes" aren't lining up to be photographed by me so I use mine for everything including landscapes. Always try hold your camera steady, if you've a tummy pull your elbows in against your rib/tummy and squeeze the shutter on the out breath, or if sitting place elbows on your thigh-knee area, best of all use a tripod. I attach a sea/landscape taken with a 105/2.5 ai and D610. [IMG]http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160610/91c0618b30bf259a2287f6a6e9a4023e.jpg[/IMG] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
