Been a long time ago since I ventured into using any C-mount lens! As far as I remember, the Nikon 1 cameras need a chipped lens, or the FT1 adapter, to be happy with dumb lenses, a sad fact for sure.

Thanks for the insight into the digital cameras of yesterday!

I use mine with Nikon 1 cameras, D3300, D7500, and D600. No issues with any of them!

Although I am a Nikon guy, the tool that I would recommend would be something smaller and lighter, the fantastic Panasonic 35-100/2.8 and a nice m43 body, say the G9 or an E-M5 III?! That way ...

Fantastic results! I have to test my copy as well!

Stan, Can't be many that use the 760c in this day and age! What are the pros compared to more modern cameras?!

Superb selection of photos! But a good camera and a great lens helps, I guess. All the best, Tord

Let us hope we live to experience those dreams come true!

Some Thai squirrels (Thailand has a lot of species, and sizes, the bigger far bigger than a normal cat, plus a magnificent tail, but hard to catch on a photo): Indochinese Ground Squirrel. Western ...

American, as he's not using a knife as well!

A lovely shot, Gaber!

Having been 'bitten' as a youth by a so-called non-poisonous spider I can report that it stung worse than a hornet! Hurt as well, and for many hours. Nowadays, helped by climate change and ...

All young Blue tits I've seen have had perfect feathers, but we had a Great tit looking worse than the one in the photo. But as he grew up into a male he looked just perfect. There were five tiny ...

That is definitely true, but the Sigma 30/1.4 Art works quite well if you use de-vignetting! I crop to 16:9, works great, and I find it easier! With the Nikon 40/2.8 DX macro you need no crop or ...

I shoot cameras with crop factor 1, 1.5, and 2.7, while my wife shoots 2.7 and 2. As LabaLaba wrote, using DX lenses on FX bodies does not always work, but some work very well, or with just minimal ...

A typical ground squirrel, if it's on the ground, right?!

I did a blunder with the two previous squirrels as they were shot by my wife, Ann-Christine! This shot was definitely taken by me, at the same time! All the best, Tord

Sad news, but all cameras (and lenses) have limited endurance, the question is just how long before they fail. As yet only a 30-110 and a Sigma 30/1.4 Art have failed, and some time ago a Pentax ...

Some delightful shots, Paul! Congratulations!

It is a delightful lens, either on DX or N1 cameras. Not to mention FX! A true pro-quality lens, just now mounted on my J5!
