  1. Don’t you count your Nikkor manual focus lenses?

  2. I don’t keep the manual Nikkor well. They are damaged by moulds now. :-(

  3. Well that has to do with the humid weather in HK I suppose. For the kind of “photography” I do I have no problem using my manual Nikkors. One of the many things I like the pro models is they allow you to do metering with the AIS lenses, (though I can always use sunny 16 rule ha ha), and you can even enter the focal length to get the EXIF data in the system.

    I found that it just pays to buy Nikkors, especially you plan to resell it. Any 3rd party lenses just can’t command the kind of resale prices.

  4. I am missing the micro prism and split image focusing screen on the old Nikon. With only ground screen and my poor eyesight, I doubt how I could make perfect focus manually. The autofocus is never perfect on the cheap D40x (A really good excuse for loussy photo :-) ).

    Yes, the Nikkor rules no matter what your plan is. Unless you use a Canon.

  5. Okay, nothing to add. Just want to see if the gravatar is working or not.
