Bart station
« on: January 05, 2016, 09:01:36 »
I recently got rid of my first copy of the 105mm f/1.8 Ai-s and picked up an amazing copy. It was used for optical measuring in a class 1000 clean room it's entire life and, once set up, never even had the focus/aperature adjusted or the hood extended.  I've never seen a cleaner lens!  And it came with a 5T, also not a spore of dust on it for $365.  Gonna test it more rigorously tomorrow, but took some shots at the bart station tonight.  Looks stellar!

I like the picture of the survelliance cam, the edits on skin are too hard for my taste

What a find. Lucky you. It looks to me to have already passed the test of producing nice results.
