[QUOTE="stmv, post: 82838, member: 10038"] [LEFT][COLOR=#000000][INDENT]so,, I hiked with my D800 with just my old glass primes. Mostly, because I get tired of weight, and these lens are almost tiny in scale. I was comparing the shots after, and was pleased on the look of the old 35 2.8 lens, not a famous lens, but it rendered the image nicely in the light. Lens to lens, the light is effected, and I can see why some photographers get drawn to some lens for certain images. Always a pleasure dialing in the focus. Interesting how one slides right back to the old mode of changing apererature and focus on the lens, and of course focus. Essentially, only use the camera for shutter speed with these old glass. Just for chuckles, you can go to say BH and see that these fully manual Nikons are mostly still Made Brand new. I think Nikon keeps them around to compete against Zeiss.
