  1. The new "Z" cameras will include in the box a lens adapter made by Nikon to keep those legacy lenses alive.
  2. While you're looking, don't overlook the Pentax 67II. Also the yellowing you're hearing about on 105mm 2.4 lenses will not happen with the 67 lens designation, verses the 6X7 designation. The recent release 67 lenses should be a buyers focus. The 6X7 designation, are old and utilize old technology glass.
  3. Or it will be one of two camera's offered one being 44X33 sensor size, would justify the large mount.

  10. Are you ready for a Mirrorless Nikon? Its about time and they're a little late in my view, but I'm all in for Mirrorless and from the looks of the size of the mount their intent is to offer FAST!! Glass, like F1.0 and F.08! Will the design be flexible enough to utilize legacy lenses? Or will they be locked out with the new Z mount exclusive. EVFs are fine now and once there, whats the point of a mirror? Get it out of there, move on. If these Nikon mirrorless camera designs incorporate metal construction throughout, they may very well get off on the right foot. I hope Nikon spent the time to think this through. Personally, I'm hoping for the allowance of an adapter for Nikkor legacy lenses its good business!
  11. 1000 pixels will load from your desktop computer. I've tried 1024, sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't. Go with 1000.

  16. Andrew, I still have this lens from bought new in 1988 and it has been one of the most enjoyable parts of my Photographic experience. In those days it was shore birds, hawks, ducks, and outings at the zoo making any evidence of enclosures disappear utilizing its razor thin focus. I have thousands of Kodachrome slides banged out via the F3, FA, the TC-14B teleconverter and the TC-300, both converters excellent optics on their own especially the TC-14B. One image taken right outside of my Condo patio back in '93 in a situation with a lot of light loss, way after sunset with shutter speeds of 1/4, 1/2, 1/8, on a tripod of course. The Owl image look a little soft after reducing its size for this purpose, but I assure you the Tiff is blistering sharp and I don't know how I missed this thread because I'm interested myself as to how it would render with a DSLR, but hopefully Nikon will release a camera soon to make it all interesting as It's about time Nikon released something here soon. This image taken with the FA, Nikkor 400mm 3.5, TC-14B Teleconverter, Kodachrome 64, Gitzo Studex Metal Tripod, Arca Swiss Monoball
  17. Greg, Yes, and I'm told, not ever being there in July that you could expect a classic Winter Summer, there at that time.
