Stamford in Lincolnshire UK photographed from Easton on the Hill, 3km distant, 10 October 2019 - very dull late afternoon light.  A technical exercise using Nikon 1 J5 coupled to 1977 Leitz R 180/2.8 Mk I & Leitz R 1.4x APO extender. For those of you recognise Stamford, the three visible church towers  from L to R are: All Saints, St John's, and St Michael's ... latter now converted to shops. The missing churches which from this viewpoint would be on the LHS in a full panoramic view are St Mary's and St Martin's. 

The J5 has a 1" sensor thus 2.7x crop factor. Thus FF equivalent focal length = 680mm.      Exposure 1/640, f 4 (f5.6)  ISO 160. 

Lens purchased as a 'wreck' at Westminster Photographica April 2018. Refurbished by Ian at Newton Ellis Liverpool ... required focus helicoil re-cut, lens diaphragm linkage strip and relube, and lens elements cleaned. A cost effective repair compared to buying a functional lens. 

Best wishes
