Nikkor 6mm 2.8 Ai

[simsurace]

Simone I'm not sure we are talking about the same thing here,,, I'm shooting Video with the D810 FX in 16:9 format

I was just replying to Akira regarding the possibility to use a focal reducer. I know that the original idea was to use the FX sensor.

With "mirrorless" I had Sony A7 series camera in mind.  Sorry to be unclear.  I guess the 0.7X reducer would work.

Good idea actually!

[Erik Lund]

OK guys Thank you for your support and suggestions! Much appreciated!

I'm confident Bjørn's relay will work and I don't have any of the other suggested speed-boosters or reducers or mirror less cameras that do video - I'm also confident of the video quality of the D810 is up to the task

Here is the final solution for Video relay support, not the lenses,,, just a mock-up, for alignment.

Beautifully craftet setup

Beautifully craftet setup 😀

I totally agree. But it looks butt ugly. A classic example of function beats design

[Thomas Stellwag]

I do not find it anyhow ugly - it looks more than if the Nikon engineers had nothing but the D8XX in mind when they drew this lens
Chapeau! for doing it

[Jan Anne]

Then it's a 50mm 1.2 Ais - my guess would be that Jan Ann will bring his sample

No worries, I'll bring mine

[Erik Lund]

Thanks all!

That dolly setup worked out really well.
Can't wait to see the full image circle in the video.
Nice job guys.

By the way; Erik, can you please let me know the serial number of that lens............PM me if you like.

[Bjørn Rørslett]

OK that settles it: JA brings 50/1.2, I the 35/1.4 (AIS) and the other paraphernalia making up the relay, and Erik is the designated courier of the 6/2.8 and all the other bits and pieces required for this unique project to reach completion.

By the way; Erik, can you please let me know the serial number of that lens............PM me if you like.

Ron, I asked already, it's 628035

The Doctor delivered the ultimate Nikon porn 

[Jakov Minić]

Erik, I like you pocket size camera 

[Jørgen Ramskov]

I wonder if Erik will need to order a seperate cargo plane

Got a strong feeling that we won't get bored over there...
