More Thoughts on the Nikon 1 V2 Rumors

When I was pontificating on what I’d like to see in the Nikon 1 V2 the other day, I left one out: The ability to use continuous autofocus (AF-C mode, to Nikon nerds) with the FT-1 adapter and F-mount lenses.

Thinking more on the new lens rumors, I’m bolstered by a new fast prime, and I realize why they did this with a “portrait”-length lens, but why not a really fast “normal” focal length? The 18.5 f/1.8 is inexpensive, but I’d rather it be more expensive and a stop faster. Ditto the 10mm. f/1.2 should be the new mark for these lenses, IMO.

And they can keep all the f/3.5+ lenses.
