 |
|
Today I received a mystery lens ... an Ensinor 24/2.8 macro. I never heard of it before, so I didn't want to pay more than 10 euros for it. Seems that I made a decent purchase:
Anyone who knows more about this specific lens? Thanks! |

Looks nice indeed, but I've never heard of it.. I will now look though. 
Is it on a bellows?
Edit: Ah, found it - not on bellows.

Is that the one?

Yes, they were all processed with Canon DPP, "Standard" picture style and default sharpening setting. For the last one, I put contrast to +1.

Yes, that was the only reference that I could find as well.
A lucky find, I guess.
Here is a real macro shot

Thanks! I wonder how popular they were at the time.
Still doesn't reveal who made them though. |

I like this very much. This is the first time I hear that lens.
It makes the pen very desirable. I don't have that one but I do have a few older Pelikan with Günther Wagner and D.R.P engraved on them. I guess, like my MF lens, I enjoy using the older pens (as long as they don't leak  )

how about my question if the third pic of you first set was postprocessed in any way?

How about reading my answer above?

But if you mean post processing in Photoshop? No, I only adjusted contrast and picture style in Canon DPP. The pictures were shot in RAW. |

Wow, lens seems to be very sharp and have good colors.
A good find for that money.
Wide angel macro can be very nice. |
