I haven't been using the V2 a lot, but here's a couple flower shots.

Here's one of me in Hoi An, Vietnam.
V1 & 18.5mm

I still really like the 1 system, they just make lovely pictures (just don't look 100% at high ISO). I keep pondering getting some Fuji for my smaller cameras but then I look at the shots from the 1 and change my mind - especially as it uses the same battery as the D610.

Amazing shots....
Love the isolation Steven.
Strong colours but not over saturated. Ned.
I took the D800 to Hunstanton for an airing today, met a Frenchman with J3 sporting the new large zoom.... Amazing bit of kit (but I couldn't give up the viewfinder though). Still in love with 1 System.

Hanoi daily news by Mark Gregory1, on FlickrA few from Vietnam earlier this year, V1 and various lenses, used it almost exclusively on that trip rather than the bigger gear, wonderful little camera and its off on its travels again soon!

Had to work away last week - Iceland and Finland. Precious few hours of daylight (and I was working), so nighttime was the order of the day! All hand-held

Ah, just found this thread. I'll post this one again though as it is one of my favourite photos.

I don't use the V2 that often for wildlife, but it can do a nice job.

Just bought a flash for my V1. Hoping that'll inject new life into it.

Please dont judge these they where taken to find out if the V2 would work with the Sigma 50-500,as you can see it does.

Got a V2 a few weeks ago as a small backup camera that will fit in my bag without taking too much room up. It will also come in handy as a holiday snaps camera when I buy a lens - only got the FT1 adaptor at the moment.
Was out with the D810 and 500mm +1.4 TC yesterday and came across a Little Owl that was around 60+ yards away. Decided to give the V2 a try.
No camera will capture minute detail at these distances but it did a good job and I liked the image.

Seriously impressed with the images on here, the 1 series seems too good to be true at the price they sell for used, def going to be my holiday camera, and will leave the D700 and 85mm 1.4 at home. May take the 35mm 1.8 fx with me if I can source the adapter at a good price.

Make sure you get the Nikon FT-1 adapter as others lose too much communication between lens and camera.

Used prices make them an absolute steal, you really can't beat them for image quality at that price. The 18.5mm is nice too, allows you to get some subject separation.
I just sold a J1, 10-30mm and 18.5mm to a mate for £160 (mate's rates) which from a photographic point of view is bargaintastic.
Coming from a slow to focus bridge camera which was failing to get shots of their kid they are delighted.
If, God forbid, I was removed of all my camera kit and only had small amounts of money to get back into it, used Nikon 1 kit would be the way I'd go as it is just sooooo cheap.

Guys..some incredible shots here. Keep them coming.
Anyone used a Nikon 1 with a 50mm or 35mm (DX) on it via the adaptor?

Yep, works nicely - a TOUCH soft wide open but becomes critically sharp when stopped down a touch.
Here's a set from f/1.8, 2.8, 5.0

Been away in Norfolk for a week and tried the V2 on the 500mm with 1.4 TC again (equivalent to 1890mm allowing for the crop)
Had it setup when this little chap arrived
