Thanks Frank.

Very nice, Fons.  Perhaps the 85/1.4 D fits the D3?

It wasn't easy to get the boy with the red ball alone in the frame...

I love the D3 + 1,8/85G. Perfect balance.

Yes. True.

Didn't like my 1.8/85G, sold it and swapped it for the 1.4/85 D.

Funny. I went the other way: bought the 1.4/85D, saw, that I did not use it, although 85 always was my favourite FL, sold it. Tested the 1.4/85G via NPS, did not like it. Then the 1.8/85G came out. Went to my brick & mortar dealer ASAP. and it became my always on on the D3, just like the 1.8/85D was since F4 days in the film era

What did you NOT like exactly?

Too sharp and didn't like the bokeh and the DOF wide open. Also not impressive with close-up shots in my view. I bought it new, checked it on alle camera's but there was not a real match between the lens and me  ;)

A good thing about Nikons price increase, sold it with a huge profit.

Wonderful shot!
