Two Vintage Nikkor Lenses

Two Vintage Nikkor Lenses
There's something unusually tactile about using these original Nikon F bayonet lenses from the pre-AI era. It is satisfying just to twiddle the focus ring until things look right instead of battling the AF and eventually turning it off. Of course, I don't photograph games or sport. if I did, I'd surely embrace all the advantages of the modern lens technology.

Photographed with an old M42 screw-thread lens - the Chinon 55mm f/1.4 - on a Canon EOS 30D.
