> Dug out the 50/1.2 Nikon and strapped in on the D7000 for these.  They 
> were shot at 1.2, and 2 respectfully.  The f-stop does not record 
> accurately on the D7000 for this lens for some reason.  The lowest that 
> will show up is 2.0 and when stopping down, it always shows the next 
> smallest f-stop, so 2.0 shows as 2.8, 2.8 shows as 4.0, etc.  Not sure if 
> that can be adjusted.

> Vanishing thin depth of field at 1.2. Been a while since I tried this lens 
> as my rate of accurately focused shots indoors was dismal, but there was 
> enough light coming through the window at Kidd Valley I think I got the
