If that is what it was for, it would not have a f-stop ring. No, it is designed so wide open has a minimal hit, unlike other brands, but it was designed to give you the option of shooting at any f-stop you need to give you the results you want in your final product.


I will agree with Akhil, but am not quite ready to jump ship.

However, if I were, for my needs Nikon would be my choice. If I needed a vast selection of lenses and especially tele, it might be a different story, but after using my father-in-law's D300, I think Nikon has it right as far as getting colors and textures right. People don't look like plastic, noise is well controlled, and colors are wonderful.

However, I have not used the 7D or the 5D Mark 2.

Shoot wide open, that's what Leica glass is for, is it not?  ;-)

Hello Everyone,

Bearing in mind the demise of the R system, and the recent
announcement of CZ primes (with licenced EOS, and now Nikon ROMs)  for
the EOS and Nikon mounts leads me to ask this list a hypothetical
question: If you had to jump would you opt for Canon or Nikon?

FWIW, I am very close to selling off my R bodies and lenses,and no,
the third -party flange/adapter solutions for R lenses do not work for
me. I do not want to go back to the 1950's when Alpas, Exaktas and
Praktinas with stop down lenses were state-of-the-art SLRs.

Regards,
Akhil
