for once that is a very easy job that can be done in a short time :-)

In the vast sea of mostly measurebators that often pervade this forum, how dare you make practical sense? The very reason to be is the endless reasearch and measuring of resolution, with utter ...

I forgot to check it myself, but yes, that is where I adjsuted mine

thank you. That batch of undersized (too short) M39 adapters for Micro 4/3 that I bought from you served me well for making a semi-permanent refit to some lenses. I am not a big fan of swapping ...

you can adjust the infintiy focus on the 70mm f2.8 rather easily. From memory: the set-screws on the collar closest to the bayonet reveal an adjustment underneat.

ah, that mount. Yes I have one (Nikkor 105mm f2.5) that is adapted to Micro 4/3. To use it on my Nikon Z I mount an additional thin adapter M4/3 to Nikon Z (yes such thing exists).

there is tremendous demand for "adapters" for Nikkor Z lenses to Nikon Z cameras. The funny thing is those adapters are free and plentiful and they are called "thin air" :-P Seriously, if the lens ...

Another pic with my "flavor of the month" lens Samyang 85mm f1.4 :-) I intentionally used f2 to have just enough DOF for the bike but separate it from the background to make it pop a bit Samyang ...

thank you. What I show here is just a small sample of images taken with adapted and refitted lenses but if adventure is your thing, a few short videos of my trips can be seen here ...

the principle of PP for me is to not make it obvious. As some are content with in-camera manipulation, for me the process is more subtle and convoluted. I am not a fan of "global" manipulation ...

of course there is some post production to get the feel that you describe. The lens was stopped down to f2.8 as wide-open gave me too little context to the backgorund trees. At f5.6 and the trees ...

Samyang 85mm f1.4 on Nikon Z

same as: my mum has a very good stove :-D

I had a non photographer joining me as well when we out on that ride and he was laughing at me directing the person in the image to have him placed just in the right position and distance from the ...

Wide open @f1.4 Samyang 85mm f1.4 on Nikon Z5

pretty good info here https://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/4419630

I can't see the links (403 FORBIDDEN) I usually play with inexpensive UV filters where I remove the glass and use the frame to the bond it semi-permanent to the back of the lens with JB-Weld Kwik: ...

not sure if it's marketed for Micro 4/3 mount ( I can't see that in the manuf. blurb) but more likely saying that it covers that sensor (4/3" image circle). I have a couple of C-mount lenses that ...

ah, the 3D printing: I never think of that. My experience with PLA ones made for me by a buddy was not that great, especially if you think there needs to be a threaded part at the end :-| But sure, ...

While the OP tells us of his problems he fails to give us an image and this, being a phtoographic forum, usually helps ;-) This is the actuall lens: ...
