I read a headline about a new Nikon f/0.95 lens. If I recall correctly, it was 58mm.

Interesting, administration would not put my information about the new Nikon Z50 on the photography forum but administration said it was OK for you to post on the new Nikon lens. Interesting how they play favorites.

Oooh! I'm a favorite!

Most of the rejects are automatic. When I try to post a link from a certain site, it gets rejected because of "too much self-promotion," or something like that. If you post a link in any section but Main, it will get moved to Links.

There are some automatic rules that are hard to understand, but it's nothing personal.

I've seen guestimates in the 6-$8,000.00 range.

Boo Hoo

You insist on putting links in the first post and then cry when they are properly moved to the links section.

It's not always about you, just your behavior.

I think if it has a link or a photo in the first post it automatically eventually gets moved. I've requested a move back on occasion and sometimes it happens. I wouldn't take it personally because the algorithm hasn't gotten to know you yet.

But if you pair it with the new Z50 you get a nice 87mm (equivalent) portrait lens. And the camera is only eight and change. Sounds like a bargain.
