My Ideal System

We all like to dream, and with myself being primarily a Konica man, this is my dream manual focus Nikon system which will probably never come together.

This would begin with having an F4s and FM3A camera body. I now have both.

My dream system of manual AIS lenses would include the following. Those marked "*" are those I currently have. So you can see how far I am from having my dream system.

*Nikkor 28mm f/2.8
