Question on using older primes on D3300

Wanted to share an update with my experiments with older primes. Getting the exposure right in manual mode with these primes has not been that difficult, even for a newbie. And the sharpness, wow.

.......

The 28mm has not impressed thus far. Getting focused images using the viewfinder has been really hit or miss, as the confirmation dot stays on for quite a range, and the wide angle makes it difficult to tell visually whether the subject is in focus or not. Thus, not sure if the inconsistent sharpness is a symptom of my focusing technique or the lens itself. More on this as I experiment further.

The sharpest 28mm is the Nikon 28mm F2.8 AIS, still in production. The other 28mm are really not upto it. So if you find a good copy, just snap it up.
