Antonio,
This is superb!. The Horseman gives you tilts & shifts?
Does anyone make an adapter that will allow the use of Enlarging lenses?
I have a few Rodenstock APOs.........I bet they would be sharp.
All the best,
Mike

Just right Mike. You get tilt, shifts and rear shifts for stiching. You get lens mount for these lenses as well.

I have two Rodenstock APO Rodagon D (80 and 120mm) they are superb. They were design as enlarging and taking lenses for macro photography in mind.

The Rodenstock APO Rodagon N are in the same league.

I also have a Nikkor AM-ED 120mm APO 6x9 lens that allow me to go 2:1 for Jewellery details. I had a Durst Seimar enlarging mount soldered to a Horseman mount to be able to go that close. The 120mm mounted on the horseman mount won't allow more that 1:2.

The 120's are my favourite lenses as I don't need to be so close to the piece.

Thanks for the comments.

Fascinating solution, Antonio, and the copper ring picture looks really great.

Does it expose the sensor to a lot of dust or is it not a major problem ?

Hi Steen, thanks for the comment.
You get a bit more dust than usual, I get to clean more often but not a problem for me. I have my cleaning ready every 2 weeks.
Same as a MFD with technical cameras I guess.
Cheers

Lots of lovely images, being posted. I am way behind. Well done folks!:clap:

I dusted off the old D700 today. Confined to the house temporarily, good time
to see the little things around me....


Still believe the D700 is the one to beat!!:D

One from yesteryear. Still believe the D700 is the one to beat.

Can new models be just a fad? Hope not; seeing the frenzy they develop, combined with people salivating at the thought of possessing the latest...
Of course, for some a new model leads to frothing at the mouth..in contrast to the salivating population.

Great to see you up to some shooting and some sharing. Very nice images. And yes, I agree that the D700 is hard to beat. More than up to most anything asked of it.

Beautiful, Rayyan, and yes, I've just bought a D700, a camera that will stay with me for very many years. A great companion to the F6 also :)

It is said that quality never goes out of style.


Fads are just that. Fads. Another fad shall come along soon enough.

D700, Nepal.
