    Thank you F. Weather was great, so the wind played with me.

    That Letus Extreme is a great DOF adapter. I use a Redrock M2, but my next one's certainly gonna be a Letus. How do you like the Nikon lens with it?

    First of all I'm very happy with my Letus, it works great, but I'm not very happy about my decision to use Nikon lenses. Not because of it's quality, I think there are no big differences between Nikon and Canon. I'm used to focus with Zeiss lenses and with Nikon lenses you have to focus into the other direction. And that's very hard to learn.

    I use Nikon lenses with my adapter, and my main complaint is that I think the image is softer than with Zeiss or Canon lenses. I love the DOF, but I like for the objects in focus to be in really sharp focus.

    Hi Nathan, that seems to be right, but if you see the images from Phillip Bloom, who also uses Nikon lenses with his adapter you can't believe it's Nikon.

    See this for example:

    You learn something new every day. I've actually seen every one of Philip Bloom's films on Vimeo, and yet I never once thought to check what lenses he uses (thanks for pointing that out). I'll have to try those Nikon Zeiss lenses he recommends.
