back in digital

…but with a twist.

I bought a Nikkor 135mm f2.8 lens on eBay the other week. One of the most highly regarded Nikon lenses ever made. All the way from 1981 and primarily for use with my FM2n, it also works with my trusty D90. Metering, auto-focus and any other ‘auto’ things that you may rely on don’t work, which means it’s sort of like I’m using the Olympus OM-1 all over again only with the ability to immediately look at a photo after I’ve taken it :-)

It’s so sharp. Here is a jpeg straight off camera. Great colour and bokeh.
