Dammit, I hate to post something right now, I KNOW that my pics are gonna put Taryn's party pics on a previous page.
So I guess I will do the bulk of this post tomorrow. But what I wanted to do was to show how freaking unbelievable
this Nikkor 180mm f/2.8 lens is. I have never experienced something like this, a big old long lens, but still so fast I can
hand hold it. And used to boot, in scratched up condition on the outside, but perfect where it counts, in the glass,
picked up for a song, basically. I'd spent so much on crap, that I almost cancelled this order, I did not need to spend
money right now. but I couldn't find a single bad thing said about it online. Glad I rode out the worry. Super sharp,
even hand-held. I know there are lots of lenses out there that are fast and long, but I sure never had one, and I damn
sure will never own one new. I hate to admit it, as superbly skilled as I am,
, I am probably a hobbyist for life.
I have to leave the $2000 lenses for the hoi polloi
