I got a Nikon lens adapter from #kandfconcept. Took about 8 days to get from Senzhen China, direct from the company, to Cape Town. Shipping was free. And way cheaper than the extortionate local markups. So now to try some #telephotography with the little old Fujifilm XE1. Usina a 300mm f4 Nikkor with a 1.4x converter. And I&rsquo;m going to try get pics of all the birds that we get to see across from our #balconyofprivilege here in Observatory - be they ever so humble.</p>
