    Look what the UPS man dropped off!

    Nikon 85mm f/1.8!

    I don't think I've ever been so excited to get a lens! Too bad I'm sick otherwise i would still be messing around with it. Can't wait to put it to work soon!

    Grabbed a few pics of it with my 35mm.








    And one i just took with a little Christmas tree in the background. Wide open of course

    It is. We found the Bud can along with 2 old Coors Original cans a few weeks ago at someones house. Not sure one their exact age. The Bud can is thick!

    Congratz.... it's a great lens.
    The Liver is Evil and Must Be Punished.

    Shooter of FX, DX and MFT

    I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

    Two wrongs don't make a right, but three rights make a left.
