Sexy model and nice shots, I enjoy your shots from these little toys Smile Keep them coming...

@Tharos: Thanks. I wish my models were real but I'd rather not practice on an actual model with MF lenses until I raise my hit rate to 50% at least. They'll be bored and tired in no time. Smile

I have the same focusing problem sometimes, especially in darker situations. My first AF confirm chipped adaptor was damaged and the chip felt down so I am using it without the AF confirm chip.

In order to focus probably I ordered a new AF confirm chipped adaptor and a 2.3x viewfinder magnifier. I will see if they will make any difference once the goods arrive Smile

@Tharos: Cool. Please let us know if the 2.3x viewfinder magnifier helps. If you got it from ebay, please tell us the ID of the seller so we can order from him or her too. Is his or her rating 100%?

The seller id is : dslrbaby, the rating was not 100% but close to that with so many transactions.

It was my first time buying from this seller so I can not comment about him/her. If you can wait 2-3 weeks, I will comment when I receive the items. If you want to try your chance by looking at his/her rating, I would say he/she seems thrustable...

Lemme know..

Hi Tharos. Thanks. I'll wait for the results of your experiment Smile I found a seller with 100% rating and saved him/her already in case you say the 2.3x magnifier works.

I'll be uploading another set of toy photos taken with the SuperTak 28mm. This time he's macho Smile
