The 18~140 at full extension, this was an E-Bay buy, apparently offered as a "kit lens" wit some of the D7500's on introduction. I've been impressed with the thing, musta got a good one. In "M" and ∱16, first at 1/125th, the second at 1/60th. ISO pegged at 3200. South-facing window light. Both full frame scaled down.

South light portraiture was a really big deal to studio photogs back in the seventies. Helped a local Pittsburgh guy build a 25'x60' extension on a house he was converting into his studio, two floors. "basement" was the labs, top floor for studio. Roof was made with translucent white panels facing south and inside there were opaque "shades" controlled with cords to selectively control which panels were open. Stunning work came out of that setup.
