Yes, that's what the MC 105 Z can do, make it much easier to stack and produce fine results.

I love the lens. Yesterday in the fields:
You are out there. You and your camera. You can shoot or not shoot as you please. Discover the world, Your world. Show it to us. Or we might never see it.

The shot of the grain is really lovely.

The 'Grain' image tells all there is to know; A true marvel of a lens! Great Frank

Bent,

This is a nice photograph...isolation with soft out-of-focus background flowers. I hazard to guess, however, that the image would be equally attractive if captured with, say, Nikon's long-discontinued 105mm f4.0 AIS micro or similar lens (e.g., the Voigtlander 120mm f2.5).

Similar maybe but not so sure about the Bokeh and the light fall off in the corners...? I have sold the AF-S, AF and MF micro versions but still have the 105/4 in my collection. If time permits I will look into comparison shots with the Z MC. I am sure we have more experienced community members to chime in.
