645z & 80/2

A bit of a candid shot of my fiancee from earlier today.
I thought I would throw the 67 105mm on the 645Z.
A hard lens to focus, but renders beautifully.

Excellent meaningful portrait.....full of sincerity....suggest cropping off the top highlight, so that the head sits higher in the frame, and concentrates attention more on the face?...I found my eye distracted constantly by the top highlight....

Great portrait. You are fortunate to have such a beautiful model so close at hand!

I do have alerts set up on eBay for the 25 and 28-45 just in case one comes up cheap when I'm feeling flush (when the stars are aligned).
I'm not feeling flush right now and I did get an alert about this 25mm going up at a little better price than I have seen. Hopefully the downward trend will continue!

The DFA version is the best to get if you want to future-proof your purchase (in the, perhaps vain, hope of a true full frame 645Zii in future). The DFA version can also be used on a 645N, etc. and gives the equivalent of a 15.5mm lens! This is a massive difference to the 19mm on the 645D/645Z. I know this for a fact as I have the DFA version and a 645D & 645Nii.

Buachaille Etive Mòr has been my favourite mountain for some time, and I was blessed to find it with such good conditions over the last week.

Excellent first shot, I feel like your breaking the rules with everything in the center of the photo but I like it.

It paid off, this is super!

That is a winner. Is this the lens that remains wide open?

Went out with the 645D this morning (my first time going digital!) and took some pictures at the Korean War Memorial. This is my favorite shot.
