That’s one thing I’ve always liked about older Nikon gear — even when the specs look dated on paper, the rendering and overall feel of the images still have a lot of character. Some of my favorite shots came from setups that were far from the newest or sharpest.

Is this a reply to a different thread Amanda?

Thank you Anthony :)
It’s the name, actually they eat every insect that they can find
I do feel bad every time I see a bird eating other smaller bird, this is socking me and I realized it doing wildlife shooting.

Nature is cruel. But is "cruel" even relevant? Nature is what it is, and we try to capture it in a skilful way. Because that is part of our nature, and we are part of nature. Sorry, stop me, I am becoming too serious   :o

Aesculus pavia, red chestnut

Ok, there is some Fons magic going on here.
(Unless the ai-nikkor 35mm f1.4 routinely produces bokeh like this?)

Lovely work Fons

I like the photo!

But AFC + people will, in release terms, behave like AFC, ie it will shoot when you press the shutter button, even if nothing is in focus.  If you want to ensure focus before the first shot, in the Menu select Focus + Release. Not a setting I use, but I am sure others find it useful.

Anyway, I enjoyed your image.

NikonRumors is saying the price is to be around $8000.

In my opinion, if its a Japanese made lens than it's going to be around $11,500.

When I shoot wildlife I try to preserve  the natural colors, thus I am very conservative in making changes, but in the last photo you mentioned, I used Lightroom  (LR) selecting one of the many profiles :)

I like your approach to the colors - they look natural with a neutral balance.

A great series of excellent images! and inspiring to follow your experiences with the Z50II.
