Probably the best film camera Nikon made, the F6 with a very special Nikkor...............the 13mm f/5.6.
Waiting for Nikon's answer to the incredible Canon 11-24mm f/4.

All green with envy here for this lens.

Thank you Rosko! Hereunder the 12 pictures from front focus to back; up to down, left to right, which served as base; stacking made with Helicon Remote; assembly with Lr/Ps:



As well as a 100% crop of the image, just to illustrate the quality of the 105mm Micro-Nikkor:

3 Focal Lengths
3 Brands
3 Mounts
1 Speed

From left to right; Voigtlander 35/1.2 VM, Nikkor 50/1.2 Ai-S and Canon FD 85/1.2 SSC. All equalised to the Leica M mount for size comparison

My 85 mm lenses are usually more humble.

The AIS 85 mm f/1.4 is an old favourite, the newer AFD is good as well, and the latest AFS 85/1.4 might  be another [minor] step up the ladder.

The secret weapon is the Repro-Nikkor 85/1 of pupilary fame as its entrance and exit pupils are nearly twice the size of the lens itself. But lenses are not the topic for this thread.

Here is my first Nikon Df with the 85/1.4 AIS Nikkor. (camera later to become a 3-D puzzle, expertly solved by our very own 'Dr. Lens' aka Erik Lund)
