What an interesting coincidence. I also met an old friend today, a somewhat more bearded one thoughMet my old friend in a neighborhood (well, not really old ).
Jorgen, it's not that I envy but your image is so ... portraiture!What an interesting coincidence. I also met an old friend today, a somewhat more bearded one though
And the Nikkor 105mm f/1.8 is just the sharpest, loveliest lens ever
Here at f/2.0 on the S5, no adjustments.
Thanks, Alex. I'm having a lot of fun with this lens. The victims are even in focus sometimesJorgen, it's not that I envy but your image is so ... portraiture!

Hello viablex1,nice I have been wanting a d@h for a while now!!
I have to jump in on the D2H bandwagon as well. I've owned three of them, and though I don't have one at the moment, I consider it a much under-appreciated camera. I wish I still had one.Hello viablex1,
Many thanks for your kind feedback. Among all the digital SLRs I have used, the D2H is certainly one of the finest cameras I own. It is responsive, fast, and solid. Though I also like the newer digital SLRs for their innovative capabilities, I have taken my D2H to remote travel destinations. Best regards, Leica 77
Nice neighborhood... beautiful neighbor!!Met my old friend in a neighborhood (well, not really old ).

Hello Lloyd,I have to jump in on the D2H bandwagon as well. I've owned three of them, and though I don't have one at the moment, I consider it a much under-appreciated camera. I wish I still had one.
Yeah, sure, she just happened to be out for a stroll around the neighborhood with her wardrobe stylist and makeup artist, right? Wait, I forgot, you're in Moscow... girls probably actually do do that there...Met my old friend in a neighborhood (well, not really old ).
Thank you, Lloyd!Nice neighborhood... beautiful neighbor!!
Very nice! Hmm, I thought Nikons were supposed to have bad flesh tones,Having a blast shooting weddings with the D3X. Nice color. Great skin tones.

Excellent on both accounts, though I somehow prefer the looks of Alex's friend over crusty old bearded guys ( ), but a great candid portrait none the less Jorgen.What an interesting coincidence. I also met an old friend today, a somewhat more bearded one though

On the contrary............Nikons have acknowledged great skin tones. Those who don't like Nikon color are put off by what they perceive to be too yellow tones in leafy green foliageVery nice! Hmm, I thought Nikons were supposed to have bad flesh tones,
Looks like several forum members (Jorgen, Alex & others) are proving this to be wrong. :thumbs:

Nikon? Never heard about it. There's a Nikkor on my Fuji though. I'll ask it about the foliage thingOn the contrary............Nikons have acknowledged great skin tones. Those who don't like Nikon color are put off by what they perceive to be too yellow tones in leafy green foliage

Hi Woody, thanks for the comments. Please understand I was being mostly facetious with my remarks.On the contrary............Nikons have acknowledged great skin tones. Those who don't like Nikon color are put off by what they perceive to be too yellow tones in leafy green foliage
