This channel exists as a vehicle to share my passion for poetry and photography as much as it is for something to do during all the enforced down time during these idiotic lockdowns. And work on my rather bad public speaking skills.
I hope you find something here you like. Thank you for watching.

thank GOD for you just getting STRAIGHT into the subject of the video. i am so disgustingly sick and tired of all these bumbling KZread posers endlessly plugging and advertising their channel or whatever TF at the beginning of every single video for like 3-5 minutes. i despise any channel that constantly does that and takes forever to get to the freaking point
Posso utilizar esse flash em câmera digital?
28 mm 2.8 ????🤮
I enjoyed the Leica flex 😁
I have Praktica MTL50 and it’s great. I would try SP, but Praktica affordable as Zenit, but far more reliable
Thank you man!
I use D4s and D6.
Does ai or ais matter? Which one is correct for d 750
Only if you have an F4 or FA,otherwise, no.
whats the first lens?
He mistakenly called it 100mm 2.5 It's actually a 105mm 2.5 it's the popular lens used by the dude who took the photo of the girl on Nat geo mag cover back in the day. I recently grabbed a copy and it's even better than everyone says it is. He's right to show it as #1. It probably is the BEST (average, consumer priced) vintage Nikon lens that everyone should start with. It's pretty amazing. I'm surprised Nikon doesn't just keep making it. They should probably make one just like the old vintage one, manual focus and a make one just like it optically, with AF.
As a budding sports photographer the AIS 300mm was pure gold and cheap.
After watching this my D200 is on the charger--after quite a few years!
I recently got a Nikon F4 and keen for an AF lens. Recommend any cheap(ish) zoom lenses?
I HAVE ONE ;)
I have a d700 with less than 20K shots, I will never sell it.
1:06 "End of discussion." LOL, nothing like thinking you're right and the rest of the world is wrong.
Is that an Nikkor 80-200 f/2.8 D? I keep getting EE messages and can't figure out putting the A ring to the orange 22 and locking the pin or not. Either way, I've noticed that it's mostly my bad hand holding that nudges the aperture or sometimes even the magnication ring. Any advice welcome 😁
Sorry but I couldn't hear what you said, those D generation and Ai/S lenses proved too much of a distraction!
cool!
I've 50mm f:1.2 Ai-s and with my D810 it's very sharp. Also I use 80-200mm f:2.8 AF-D. This one is a solid metal and gives very good picture quality. My 35mm f:2 AF-D is as good as its AFS cousin but at a much low cost.
I just got a D200 from MPB and the raw files are quite beautiful and rarely had to do any post-processing. It's a lovely kit and i love the ergonomics.
The d4s and d5 are not incremental improvements. They are leagues above the D3s. I have D3, D3s, D4, D4s and D5 so I know.
💯🇹🇷⭐️👍 I have 1 of this F3 device, it is very clean, it is for sale, if anyone is interested, there is a video on my KZread channel.
Yes. Thank you.
Thanks for the review, so the image quality between the two there is no difference? I only ask since I saw a dissassembly video of the two and I noticed some differences in the elements inside!
Thank you - I like that you are direct to the point.
Thank you very much . I love Nikon . But it is very hard to bring those out to the outfields . Mar. 14th 2024 Thu. 11:28 am from Yokohama City Japan
I owned the 55 2.8 micro AIS. My copy was not as sharp stopped down to F4 as my Nikon 50mm F1.2 at F4. I also owned the Zeiss 50mm Macro plannar lens and my copy of the Nikon 50mm F1.2 was sharper then the Zeiss macro plannar. So in my case the 50 F1.2 ( note its very dreamy, hazy whatever you like to call it wide open ) is my sharpest MF AI or AIS lens when stopped down to F4. Better then The Zeiss 50 and better then the 55 micro nikon lens.
So many of these extraordinary lenses can be found on eBay, etc., but typically the front element is scratched or scarred by ignorant owners rubbing them for cleaning, as you point out. Why did Leica decide to use a piece of glass that is "soft as chalk?"
No live view, the worst. Viewfinder ain't accurate
@wendysburgers4326 You pointed the reasons this camera is great to grow as a photographer. It will make you work!
i have a summaron LTM an 1953 i like it and use on leica M6
Exactly what I needed! Thanks
Nice video. I have a 7200, 700 and beastmode d3. I love them all! Beastmode does get a bit heavy with large lens or flash!
You might want to try a 135mm 2.8 Series E (it's an AI-S too). I tested 2 Nikkor copies against it and it blew them both out of the water. Slightly smaller with less glass and was supposed to be a more affordable, lower end line at the time but it's actually a far superior lens than the Nikkor AI or AIS version. The contrast and "3d pop" is makes the E shine. The supposedly "excellent" graded AI copy was a total dud, so I knew it wasn't fair, so I tried again, this time getting a good AIS copy and the E still handed it, it's ass. Pixle peeping, wide open down to f3.5 the nikkor had a super, super slight edge in sharpness over the E but even still it looked FLAT as crap compared to the E and by F4, all the way down the E took every advantage. Equal sharpness but totally blew it away in photo quality in every other aspect. It's no compassion. The lower end grade 135 2.8 E totally destroys the Nikkor head to head. I don't think many people know this at all. I'm the only one posting comments anywhere to claim it being the case. I just don't think people thought to compare them to each other. Only reason I did, was I bought the E and fell in love with it and since there was a "better" version out there, I was going to trade up!....... Well, 2 tries latter, I sold the Nikkors at a loss both times too, but oh well. Least I know.
and shooting in Color Mode III 😱 best thing ever.
By far one of the best cameras ever made, even in 2024. That flash is more powerful than most top mounted flashes, definitely more powerful than all of Nikon's new bodies. The body is more durable than anything they're currently putting out. The CCD sensor jpegs hold together significantly better than any CMOS sensor you can buy since its release all the way to today in 2024. The only problem this camera has is not having super high iso settings in-camera. Never needed more than 1600 even at night. My only complaint of the D200 is I wish it had a fast frame rate, like around 9 or 12. I regularly shoot 1600 or 3200 iso and just run an ai denoise if I don't want the grain. But the grain disappears when you print and when you reduce the resolution for online use. This body wants f1.8, f1.4, and f1.2 lenses.
Why did you make this vid? Seems like you’re very angry and can’t really be bothered! I got nothing from this!
You misunderstood his intended tone.
Definitely not a K Mount.
Still using the D200 professionally in 2024, over 500,000 clicks
@HarveyWallbanger-ho2cq Wow! That’s insane! I just won one on eBay for $80 bucks shipped I’m still waiting to be delivered. Can’t wait to try it.
I have just one Jena lens, and I love that it says DDR on the front.
AA batteries don't work well if it's alkaline, you gotta get nimh or something better to use it just before anyone makes my mistake too lol
Thought they are reasonably tough, I have never banged my lenses around like that.
Definitely the 80-200 f2.8 Incredibly heavy and not so slow as mentioned. Well worth lugging that around even if you need a massage afterwards. Not mentioned here, the 105 f2.8 macro. Superb.
Language!
Thank you for your review. I own this lens for maybe 20 years. It went we me from film, die DSLR (D2H, D3, D700,......D800, D50) a now to the mirrors ecosystem (Z). I'm still astonished that this lens keeps up with the modern bodies. More than that, it lets them shine. Compact, character,... I still love it. 🙂
Very interesting. I have 3 Prakticas and they are awesome. The LTL 3 is the favourite SLR in my collection
Nice video. I got the Summaron 35/3.5 built in 1954 for my Leica M240. My lens has no filter thread and I have to get one of those a36 filters which you have to push on. Today I used this lens on a NIKON z6 ii with the TZM-02 adapter. Wonderful results, the adapter changes this 70 year old lens into an autofocus lens.
hi, nice video. I didn't understand one thing. but will any flash of any brand work on the M10? I'm looking for a small one but I was afraid of compatibility. Are they all okay? Thank you
The only camera that holds a place in my heart is the pentax k1000 you cant put a price on sentimental.
Great video Thanks for sharing I have pulled my 20 year old D 200 back out and have been pleased with the shots that it takes for what I use it for. As an action camera shooter I shoot live events like Air Shows and Race Track events. Good to see that others still consider it a viable camera .
Perfect answer to my question, thank you!
