[QUOTE="JDFlood, post: 144487, member: 11653"] I have a dozen and a half Nikkor auto focus lenses. I pulled a 135mm lens from my F1 and used it, it worked pretty well, in good light I could focus it, but not like on a camera intended for it. I didn't get any more. A fine camera like the D800 with a manual focus lens seems crippling, like a Porsche with bias ply tires. I get the draw to Zeiss, for me the trade offs don't seem worth it. jD [/QUOTE]
