After a decade of sporadically shooting film and now having three kids to document growing up, I picked up a D750 this year (don't need 4k video, wanted something I could share lenses with a film slr). I have an 85mm for portraiture, a 50mm for... 50mm things, and a 200-500mm telephoto. When I was taking pictures of the kids opening presents for Christmas this year, I found 50 to still be a bit long. Any suggestions for something a bit wider that isn't too distorted and is fast enough for indoors?

Thanks, y'all. It'll probably be a few months until I pick it up but I'll probably get that 35/2

Curious if anyone has any opinions on differences between the F4, F5, and F6. Is there anything that really makes the F6 worth 3x the F5? I like the idea of being able to get a film slr that can use everything I already have for my DSLR

Looks like basically they can only be shot wide open even on the 6, yeah. I think that 200-500 is the only E I have

Well gently caress it I pulled the trigger on the F5 because I'm having a bad day and making rash decisions

In a somewhat similar vein, I picked up the MF 28 back for the F5, and one of its options is to print shutter speed and aperture in between frames

I thought new cameras were basically only for professionals, preferably whose jobs are paying for them, and people with more money than sense

Apparently Nikon is disputing the F mount rumor https://petapixel.com/2024/01/25/nikon-rejects-the-claim-that-it-is-no-longer-producing-f-mount-products/
