Going back to film, just building this system up, like the F3 system I put toether from you, great bang for the buck!

Very nice portrait/telephoto lens for both medium format and 35mm - I use it with mamiya 645e, mamiya 645AFD, Nikon D300 and FE10 (with adapter). Not so sharp as standard Mamiya 80mm f2.8 N, but for the price I'm sure its worth the money (about 70$). Almost no distrtion, solid metal body, comfortable manual focusing much better then in new AF models, nice bokeh. I found it sharpest at f5.6. When attached to FX or DX body You use best part of glass - the center - so any other nikon lenses in this price range are far away with quality. I own Mamiya 80mm f2.8 and this 150mm. I also plan to buy 50mm f4 with shift (in my opinion best quality/price option when attached to standard 35mm) and some wide-angles 35mm or maybe sharper 45mm. In theory medium format lenses are not so sharp as standard 35mm lenses, but my experience shows that Mamiya is much sharper and really Top Class glasses.
