Nikkor 200mm f4 and Dancers in Seattle
« on: September 08, 2025, 02:37:41 »
I took my old Nikkor 200mm f4 AIS out for a spin during a celebration for Seattle's newly rejuvenated waterfront this weekend. There were lots of dance performers including this Latin American group. Nikon D850.

Lotsa Nikon gear.
Lotsa Minolta gear.

Yes, the brilliant color is amazing.  I had a non-s Ai Nikkor 200/4.0 (the same optical design), and it was definitely one of several admirably performing MF Nikkors on full-frame digital cameras, which is well proved by hese images.

Thanks for the comments, folks. The 200mm is a fantastic little lens, and I should take it out more.
