See, my old DCS 330 could use the pure APS size lens Nikkor-IX lenses, and I have a few of those, 'cus they were cheap, but good. Although they are F-Mount, they have a tube that prevents mounting on the newer bodies. Real **** off is salesdude said they would work, but apparently they can be modified pretty easy....
See, I don't even have time to take the pics, and now I'm moddin, equipment.

Fall in Minnesota
I spent some time today cleaning up the GL getting her ready for the long winter ahead. Thought you might enjoy some fall pictures of the Verde Brooke. I really like the earthy tone in the fall like this.
It's not remarkably clean, but the road by my house is under construction which means more time spent driven on dirt/gravel roads.

a fellow GL owner I met at a campground gave me a hint: raise the truck before every wash. That way your carpeted wheel wells get washed!

I've never understood the carpeted wheel wells. In the winter I get a good accumulation of gunk on them.
Thanks for the tip on raising the truck.

After returning from the Grand Canyon, I returned to these old post to remember which HDR program you used. I was a little discouraged when I read that you were bracketting 3 shots and the program combined them into one.
Then it dawned on me that I may be able to do the same thing in post processing since I shot RAW files. I can process the RAW file 3 times, something like (-1, 0, +1). Do you think this will work?
Here's an example

There's alot of differences i mean obviously i know i'm driving a taller and bigger car (compared to the R class) but the steering is amazingly alot more lighter than the R for some reason, the suspension is a bit more bumpy compared to the R, maybe is due to the airmatic compared to the R i didnt have a airmatic. overall it's a great car especially the P2 package that i got it's a very comfortable car.
