Nikon AF 35mm f/2 D – Sample Photos and Mini Review – (Road Trip to NC)

I finally bought a used AF Nikon 35mm f/2 D.  For many many years I actually used the DX (APS-C) 35mm f/1.8 on my various FF Nikons.  Because I had it handily available, and its secret ability is that it actually has enough glass to cover the 24x36mm sensor.  With clever editing you can get […]

Fujifilm X-E1 + XC 16-50mm f/3.5-5.6

So I finally bought a native Fuji lens for my X-E1, a used 16-50mm XC kit lens.  Probably the cheapest lens that Fuji makes, and you know, it’s not that bad.  Especially not for the price on the used market.  I think it’s great because its so light and the footprint in the inventory slot […]
