Practically, I've never thought Pronea still works. More than happy to see any photo from it. I've heard someone attached it with 14-24mm lens. Without any further ado, show your pictures pls.

 

Not my best work, but a Pronea 6i with badly expired Kodak Gold 400. These were shot and developed last fall. I went against my normal principles and had the lab scan these as I don't have a good way to scan it myself :)

 

The next time I try this camera, I'm going to dial in +1 or +2 EC to compensate for the fact that the film for it isn't getting any younger.

 

The first was taken with the 24-70 kit lens-an oddball screwdriver focusing lens that sticks way back into the camera and actually was Nikon's first "G" lens(even though not labeled as such). The second was with the 14-24 f/2.8.

 

All AF, AF-D, AF-S, and presumably AF-I lenses are compatible with this camera with no limitations on focus or exposure, although "E" apertures will be stuck at the largest aperture and of course AF-P is out. Also, if using a VR lens, turn VR off as it won't function but will drain the batteries.

Nice to see D1H-mate here :)

As much as I love my D200/D300/D700, the D1H is often my favorite. It has a character all its own. I do wish it had come with a lighter-body twin sometimes. Finding aftermarket batteries with reportedly better life than the originals helped a lot with usability.

Before I bought the aftermarket ones, I resorted to using a Quantum battery-pack and cable. Works well, but looks funny (got laughed once at by someone in a car on a trail road while hiking in the woods. ;- )

Does this count as old school?

 

Finepix S5 Pro, which is a D200 body with a Fuji sensor. The lens is the 35mm Nikkor f/1.8 DX. I still use this as a studio camera.

BTW, @blurrist I never miss a chance to trash talk the D2H, but your photos continue to prove that even a camera like that in capable hands-such as yours-is capable of stunning results!
