I think I have that lens somewhere – the AiS and the AF-D. I would choose it over the 1.4 without thinking about it.
If f/1.8 can’t give you the bokeh you need, you’ll never be happy. Leica doesn’t even have an f/1.8 50mm, and people cannot say enough good things about the bokeh of the Summicron.
Karim… man, I actually agree with everything you wrote.
Easily in the running for the best film camera that Nikon ever made.
Not a fan of the “E” lens though. Optics are fine, but lubrication/mechanics of the focus ring are chancy and the lens is actually a little too small for my fat fingers.
If you get a good one, you don’t need anything else.
Show us some pictures!
(Never commented before, but I’m a huge fan of your family pictures.)
Well Scott, I’m glad you finally broke your vow of silence!
Nice first comment: concise, honest, blunt but fat with content, just like your fingers ha ha.
I’m with you on this one: if I get a good 50/1.8, I really don’t need anything else.
Photos from the first (test) roll to be posted shortly.

Thanks for your encouragement.
