I am generally always having a good time with long Nikkors. They're easy to focus with any type of help.
Right now there are these holes in my prime selection: 180/200 and 300. Perhaps 180/2.8 + 200/4 Macro could be something. And the 28/2 I might even sell -- I am having similar frustration with it that I did with the 20/1.8. These lenses and how they are focused never seem to achieve Leica-level qualities.
Of course whose fault is it exactly to expect such feats from Nikon?
Perhaps it is how it has to be then. Leica for all things up to 50 mm and Nikon for the rest. I already arrived to this conclusion once before.

It is because the "made to fit" order from focusingscreen.com didn't actually fit Df perfectly. It's a tiny bit smaller. I'm not the only one, that's how they tend to be.Perhaps the focus screen isn't installed properly. I've never heard of a decentered focus screen.
