Trying to get the most out of my home made adapter I have connected the Mamiya-Sekor 4.5/250 for RB67.
Not the easiest lens to use but it works,
Lots of fun anyway.
Here is the lens setup:



And here are some piccies:

Thanks Karen and Mo.
In spite of its bulk, the optics here are very good indeed.
More pictures to come as I get more comfortable with it.

Thanks Mo.
Has to be the bunnies - no love for the dogs as an old Balmain fan - even though memories of the 1967 grand final are burnt into my brain ..............

Your adapter is producing some excellent work with these Mamiya lenses. Thank you for sharing all the samples. How many Mamiya lenses do you have now and which one is the best so far?

Thanks Gavin and Mo - go the Rabbits.
@ kenetik
I have tried the 127 and 250 on my adapter and still have the 90 and 180 to go.
These are all fine lenses on RB67 and I expect that they will perform very well on my digital with yon adapter.
Very much a studio/heavy tripod/beanbag arrangement at the moment though.
I went to the seaside today with the grandkids and there was no way I was taking one of the RB lenses with me.
Instead I packed the trusty K-10D and Mamiya-Sekor 1.8/55
I am very happy with the results and will post them in another thread.

Here are some examples

Hi Tom,

I am amazed at the colors you can get from your trusty K-10. You never cease to amaze me with your photography.

Consider me your # 1 student Tom as I do try to emulate you. So beautiful Smile

Regards,

Gavin

Thank you Gavin, but I think that the credit goes to the K-10D sensor for the colours -and the Mamiya helps of course.
Mamiyas always seem to help the Pentax sensor shine.
Overcast days and rainy days are perfect for good colour saturation.
Almost any sensor will respond well on these days.
I appreciate your kind words
