My favourite Camera and Lens combo though my newly aquired (May 2011) Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 USM is gaining fast.
The Lens has a Hoya UV filter mounted.
P.S. never get a non USM lens

I wanted to take a shot like this where I focussed directly into the lens. I wish I had a zoom lens that would go in further than 135mm and probably do macro so that I could zoom right in on this but this is as close as I could get and still focus.

I like to mess around with putting lenses on cameras they aren't mean't for...
This is the adapter you can buy on ebay from Fotodiox. As it is, it doesn't work properly, as Pentax 645 lenses' diaphragms are by default open. Therefore there is nothing on the adapter to stop the lens down to its working aperture and you are stuck with just the maximum, if that makes sense!?
To get around this problem, I took the mount and flocking off the lens and removed the spring that holds the aperture open. I then added a more substantial spring to link the stop down lever to the meter sensing pin (which moves with the aperture ring), so now the two are 'tied' together and the lens stops down when the aperture ring is turned, like an old fashioned manual diaphragm lens.
Obviously it's useless for use on a Pentax 645 camera now, but I don't care as I don't have one!
If I had to do this again, there is a Mamiya 645 to Nikon adapter by the same maker, and, as the Mamiya 645 lenses have auto/manual switches on the lens, they will work perfectly. So maybe next time it will be a Mamiya lens I try - I'd quite like the 110mm f/2.8.
Anyway, the Pentax 645 lens works a treat and cost $45 from KEH.COM. Pretty good for a nice 105mm equivalent lens on the D200!

March Field Air Museum, and the P-38 National Museum are adjacent to the March Air Reserve Base, Riverside, California. March Field Air Museum serves as home to over 60 historic aircraft and many inside displays relating to the history of March Field, now known as March Air Reserve Base. The main building was erected in 1993. Its style reflects the traditional hangars of earlier aviation days. The distinctive checkerboard roof can be readily seen from the Interstate 215 freeway. At the museum visitors can watch modern military aircraft as they land and take off daily. Inside the museum the visitor will find thousands of artifacts on display covering the years from 1918 to the present. Also displayed in the hangar are some rare and unusual aircraft, including a P-59 fighter, the first operational jet adopted by the U.S. Air Force over 50 years ago. The building also contains a theater in which visitors may view films about the history of March Field and U.S. military aviation, the General Curtis E. LeMay Library, a well-stocked Museum Store, a G-force Flight Simulator, and the museum offices. A unique feature of the museum is its Heritage Courtyard in which inscribed six-inch tiles may be placed for a reasonable charge as personal memorials, records of past service, etc. Part of the Heritage Courtyard includes the 15th Air Force Wall area, which contains a bronze sculpture of General "Jimmy" Doolittle and Heritage Tiles commerating the various Bomb Groups and Squadrons of the 15th Air Force. Another part of the courtyard contains the War Dog Memorial Sculpture with Heritage Tiles around the base commerating both War Dogs and family canine memorials.
The P-38 Museum is operated by the P-38 National Association and is normally open only on weekends. A full scale fiberglass replica P-38 is on display.

The car is faultless throughout, every aftermarket part (of which there are a lot!) has been carefully considered before fitting. This results in a highly modified car, which looks like it’s rolled off the Ford production line – spot on!

Nikon F100 (new camera, just got it this weekend)
24-85mm f/2.8-4D
strobist info: no flash used, natural light from the window and four sheets of A1 card.
processing: some exposure and white balance adjustments in Lightroom.
4.5fps that's fast! a roll of film would only lasts 8 seconds.
focusing with the 24-85mm f/2.8-4D is unbelievable fast too, maybe faster than the 24-85mm 3.5-4.5G, I think I'll do a IQ comparison between the two soon.
I'm shooting my first roll of Astia 100F with it.
_______________________________________________________________
For generations, Nikon have designed Nikon F Series cameras to achieve maximum performance and meet the needs of some of the world's greatest photographers. But such great cameras don't pass the test of professionalism until you actually hold them in your hands and put them through the rigors of professional photography. Day in and day out.
That's why we're so proud to present the newly designed Nikon F100 - an exceptional camera evolved from our long experience in providing more of what you need to realize your photographic aspirations. With innovative built-in Nikon F System technology more sophisticated than ever, the F100 makes precise, responsive Dynamic Autofocus so fast that images literally pop into focus. The camera also works perfectly with every AF Nikkor lens, AF-S Nikkor, AI Nikkor and more.
The F100 features Nikon's 3D Matrix Meter, for exposure control that has been developed through over a generation of innovation. There's Spot and Center-Weighted Metering, too. And Nikon's Automatic Balanced Fill-Flash System is uncanny at showing up that touch of extra light for more perfect exposures and cover page pictures.
For extra dependability, the chassis, top, bottom and front covers, and selected parts are constructed of rugged magnesium alloy metal.
By expanding your choices and meeting your need for a smaller, lighter camera, all without sacrificing ruggedness, the F100 joins the Nikon F5 as a camera of choice among the world's best. In short, it's one tough camera destined to take whatever kinds of the world's greatest pictures you want to take. That makes it truly worthy of the name Nikon F100 - Professional.

Das hat man nun davon. Der Ruf, eine Sammelstelle für alte Kameras zu sein, die hier einen sinnvollen Lebensabend verbringen können, läßt einem immer mehr alte Schätze zufliegen 😊
Die neueste Errungenschaft: diese Leicaflex SL. Herzlichen Dank, Wolfgang!
In Kürze: Die Leicaflex SL löste 1968 die Leicaflex ab, die noch eine Außenmessung hatte, immerhin CdS, die nie erschienene Ur-Leicaflex war noch mit Selen-Außenmessung konzipiert.
So war die SL mit ihrer selektiven TTL-Belichtungsmessung mit Offenblende zunächst durchaus auf der Höhe der Zeit. Aber die fernöstliche Konkurrenz schlief nicht und war auf dem Gebiet der Automatisierung von Kameras dynamischer als Leitz. So tat man sich vernünftigerweise 1976 mit Minolta zusammen und entwickelte gemeinsam die R3 mit Zeitautomatik, die der XE-1 von Minolta sehr ähnlich war. Mit der R3 begann die R-Reihe der Leica-Spiegelreflexkameras, die erst 2009 mit der R9 eingestellt wurde.
Zurück zur SL: Über alle Zweifel erhaben sind die Robustheit, Präzision und Zuverlässigkeit der Leicaflex. Das hört man auch - volles sattes Auslösegeräusch. Allerdings drückt sich das auch im Gewicht aus: fast 1100 g mit dem Summicron-R 1:2/50. Aber immerhin 1/2000 Sekunde - und die Zeiten kann man stufenlos einstellen, Blitzsynchronisation 1/90 Sekunde.
Das Summicron ist das beste 50er Normalobjekiv der Welt (sagen die Leica-Freunde). Gut, es ist mit Sicherheit eins der besten. Vielleicht kommen bald Weitwinkel- und Tele-Elmare und Summicrone angeflogen – es wird ihnen gut gehen auf meiner Seite – ehrlich ;-))
Zum Batterie-Problem:
Die 625er Quecksilberbatterien mit 1,35 Volt gibt's ja nicht mehr. Die einfachste Lösung: Man legt eine 675er Hörgeräte-Zelle (1,4 V) rein. Die hat einen kleineren Durchmesser und ist geringfügig dünner, aber wenn man die Metall-Abeckung (+Pol) des Faches fest zudreht, ist die Batterie ausreichend fixiert. Der Deckel sitzt dann etwas tiefer, weil die Zelle ja dünner ist, aber es funktioniert!
Bei der SL 2 ist es etwas anders: Da bräuchte man zwar auch die 1,35-V-Quecksilberzelle, aber die Fachabdeckung ist aus Plastik, der Pluskontakt geht über die Seitenwände des Faches. Abhilfe: ein Wulst aus Alufolie um die Hörgerätezelle rum (bitte damit nicht den Minus-Kontakt am Boden berühren) – funktioniert auch!
Yesterday I got a new 5D mk II. Nope, not a mk III, for me the price is too high for a better AF (wich I don't need really, because I shoot a lot of landscapes). These are my two favorite cameras now; the 5D mk II (with the Sigmalux attached) and the Fuji X100. Both completely different cameras, but I love them both :)
