Great results! I have only played with a pre-production version but I was very impressed with the build quality.

Is it true that Nikon don't have a MF equivalent of the Pentax 'A' Series?
i.e. They don't have a MF lens on which the aperture can be set from a DIGITAL camera body and also displayed on the LCD? They only have AF lenses that do that.
If it is true I'm surprised no one has picked up on it from the other mans grass is always greener brigade I'm sure they would if it was the other way around

To use an AI or AIS lens and use the aperture ring, you need one of the more expensive Nikon bodies. The D300, D600 and I think the D7100 for example.Is it true that Nikon don't have a MF equivalent of the Pentax 'A' Series?

I must confess to being a photographic equipment repair technician and I repair Nikon stuff. I prefer my Pentax gear though, so that will tell you something.

I've owned an ME-Super since 1982 and I still shoot the occasional roll of film. I now have a K-X and a K5 and enjoy using my collection of vintage manual focus lenses. I have some Russian glass , Tamron Adaptall plus old SMC Pentax lenses.
I look forward to contributing to this forum very soon.
Cheers,
