D700 + 55/2.8 @f/11. meh shot while rendering reds and other colors imo correctly.

D700, 28/2.8 ais
exif says 55mm; but lens is 28mm used to make 3-image stitched pano. D700 allows custom manual lens settings, user just
has to remember to change setting after switching lenses to reflect in exif.

D700, 55/2.8. the print looks better on rag 5x7 than online version imo.

D700 + 28/2.8 ais @f/5.6 cropped.
The lens shows an apparent issue upper-left near the pole transformer, soft focus but sharp focus elsewhere closer and further. Maybe field curvature or something else, not sure (sensor is clean). Did same thing at f/8 and f/11, first time using/testing this lens outside.

bought a season pass to this StL Nat'l museum of transportation, since it's good a learning ground to shoot w/few distractions.
there's an indoors one in Denver too but never been. this place in STL in Kirkwood was once a depot, while they encourage
photography as a museum now.
