[QUOTE="piperbarb, post: 177400, member: 12214"] I have a bunch of them from my F4 days. I even have a pre AF f/1.4 35mm lens. I love that lens, although I don't use it all that much. I have the AF 105 f/2.8 micro Nikkor and that is one of my favorite lenses. I also have the AF f/2.8 50mm micro-Nikkor. It's a nice lens that I have started to use more and more. Another good one is the AF f/1.8 85 mm. I also have the AF f/2 35mm lens but don't use it too much. There is nothing wrong with the older lenses. They may not have the "techno" status of the newer ones but they work well, are tack sharp, and solid lenses. One of the features I like about the older lenses is that they have the depth of field marks on the lens barrel. I know that with autofocus, a lot of people don't think those lines are needed but they can be very handy at times. [/QUOTE]
