Fuji X100 Soft Porn with Pentacon Oreston 50/1.8

[Laurence]

I was the lucky recipient of a fairly rare Pentacon Oreston 1.8/50 from
none other than the GRACIOUS Lucis Pictor. Thanks so MUCH Carsten!

I decided to mount the beautiful little lens on my Pentax ZX-5N and shoot
a little bit of X100 porn.

The colors, the bokeh, and the clarity of the lens, and the
overall ergonomics of this older lens looks as wonderful as any
modern lens.

I really love 50mm lenses, as they all seem to be so pure in their renderings.

This Penta-Oreston focuses very very close, which is an added wonderful
bonus. Again, THANK YOU Carsten.

Very nice Larry (although looks underexposed on my monitor)! What a great gift of Carsten!
