Reader feedback
I receive unsolicited feedback on a regular basis, which I enjoy, and I’m often remiss in not posting some of it. Nothing makes me feel better than knowing that what I’m offering is of direct benefit to my subscribers and readers. Thank you very much.
I’m not advising anyone to sell their equipment, but what I’ve found, echoed here by reader/subscriber Bud R, is that the “right” equipment can not only suit your needs better and be a pleasure to use, but offer results you might have not previously attained, keeping in mind that “results” is a multi-dimensional concept that varies for each photographer.
Here are Bud R’s thoughts on this site and on DAP:
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate all the information on your website. I thought I knew just about all there was about taking pictures, but reading your DAP columns, and your evaluations about the Zeiss lenses completely changed the way I think about photography. After reading your work, and doing much thinking, I sold ALL of my photo gear and started over with the premise that I would rather have one great lens than a few good ones. So, I bought a D700 and the Zeiss 50 and 100 makro-planars. Wow! I actually enjoy the manual focus and photos are sensational by comparison to my other gear. My main interest is in portrait work, mainly black and white, which is why I recently bought the Nikon 70-200. Anyway, keep up the good work. — Bud R
The Zeiss Makro-Planars are indeed two of my favorites, and I’ve written about them numerous times here in this blog (search), most recently here.
See all Zeiss ZF.2 lenses for Nikon and all Zeiss ZE lenses for Canon.
