you're right bro... better go out and shoot with all those great line up of lenses that you have rather thinking about what's next

btw show us more ZF MP 100 photos!

Sayang duit nya bro....
ZF 100/2 is reallly expensive, i paid Rp.15,000,000 for this lens >,<
It's the most expensive of all ZF lenses.
Now, all i need is TIME to go out and shots like hell hahahahhaa :devil:

Just curious, is the D80 fully compatible with CZ lenses (beside manual focus).

not fully compatible as you will not have metering when mounted CZ lenses on D80 body.

these photos are untouched huh?
wondering why i cannot get such vibrant colors from my D200+50mm f/1.4 ZF (JPG, 0 saturation, 0 enhancement, 0 tone)

D3 really makes such a difference or the lens?

Yes, it's the camera that makes a lot of difference...
I own Nikon D50, D70s, D80, D2Xs + D2H (both sold already), D300 and D3
From my observation, the "old" generation of Nikon DSLR CANNOT produce the same color as the new Nikon DSLR generation (nikon D300 and D3)
The new engine on Nikon D300 and D3 will give you a very vibrant colors and better shadow tone.
I really hate to say this, but since i own Nikon D300 dan D3, I rarely use the "old" generation of Nikon DSLR....
I was really amazed with the ability of Nikon D3 dan D300 handle the highlight and the shadow details and tone graduation.

You should try it by your self, go out there, shot the same object with Nikon D300/D3 and compare it with a shot that taken with Nikon D200 or the "old" generation of Nikon DSLR

Actually you can try making your own curve and load into the camera.

Someone may have asked this before, but for those of you who have the 35/2 and 25/2.8, can you let me know if there is any difference in sharpness? I am keen in the 25mm, but i heard some not so good things about it. Pls help.

There are a few photo samples of 35/2 in this thread. It is really sharp.
