I picked up the SX version of this lens recently, it's got a lip on the aperture ring and a pin that stop it mounting on the M42 adapter correctly, but I can hack that. If it's as good as my other Mamiya Sekor lenses I'll be be very happy. And your pictures look good Mo so I think I'll get the tools out.
Welcome back as well,

Nice shots, for the tree, try stopping down some, it will reduce the mushiness and every leaf and flower petal should be easier to differentiate from the others.
Your background will not be as soft so you'll have to be more careful with your setup, you might get away with using a tripod and blending wide open and stopped down shots if the stopping down doesn't cause focus shift.
Or find a lens that performs better wide open.

I have copied the image and tried to bring out detail but the petals are now shown as pixels where I should see petals. processing just gives sharp pixels.

Was the last M42 lenses made by Mamiya.
In some lenses, Mamiya changed the lens formula.
The 28/2,8, 35/2,8, 55/1,8, 135/2,8, 200/3,5, etc.
The 55/1,4 wasn't changed |
