OMG...that FOV is incredible! So sharp, well done....less than two hours? Very nice.

Oh cool , good score.

Be sure to make a B-mask if you dont already have one , I had to put a piece of tape on my lens to keep it from slipping during exposures and getting critical focus is a bit maddening sometimes.

I had the adapter already. Mine too is the old manual focus I got from ebay at a good price. I'm hoping to use it tonight!

Thanks Steve

Mines one of the older manual focus lenses so it wasnt too expensive , did you order the adapter too or are you shooting with a Nikon camera?

Hey Erik, I commented on this on the other site. Excellent work. I got my 180mm ED in the mail today. I ordered it from Japan on 6/27/11!! I hope to test it out tonight.

I don't know if there's acid in my coffee, but I see a face in the middle. Erik, how about a big version. Cool Pic, Marc
