Orio, the one man agenzia nazionale del tourismo, strikes again... Twisted Evil

He! The grass is as usual greener on your side of the alps.

This is for you Michael Smile

Russian gem! I love this lens pretty much.

Thanks - some day I will try this lens although it's not M42-mount. Don't know if my canon rejects this brand even if only adap ...

I always make some "calibration" shots to get the needed exposure compensation. Usually from -1/3 with open aperture up to -1 at f8 on most lenses. And if I remember correct, only one light ...

Congratulations to such a lens, Carsten. Sounds like my emotions after buying the Helios 40-2 some time ago.

I have had too many cases, I don't think it's a combination anymore, I am now persuaded that eastern Zeiss has labeled "aus Jena" their best copies (the one that did better at QC tests), b ...

Rick, you are right regarding the field of view. But for me depth of field matters and makes the difference. Otherwise I would not use a dslr but a bridge camera with the small sensor.

I must say that 85mm on full frame is indeed different that 50mm on crop, the perspective is different

Hi Erez. So often you see someone say "50mm on a crop camera is the equivalent of 85mm o ...

As usual - a perfect eye for the beauty of the landscape. Sharp, excellent color developement and contrast. Thank you for showing, Orio. I too hope to see this wonderful country again soon.

Michael, I'm a bit paranoid about vignetting at the moment Smile

Some of your shots have it and not others. Assuming you used the 5D, has it been caused by one of your lenses, or did you add it later? ...

Thanks for the comments, friends.

Wonderful color development, Carsten. And I like the detail shots very much.

Yesterday I visited the nearby small airfield with the kids - and my old 350D with Jupiter 21 and Mir-24M. Weather changed within minutes, so there are very different light conditions.

For exact monitor calibration you need hardware like the spyder line from colorvision. Software calibration, for example with adobe gamma (part of many adobe products), is only a compromise and not ve ...

The b/w conversion is excellent, the vignetting is perfect for this composition (real or software?).
Impressive pictures, thanks for sharing!

Michael

Orio, wonderful pictures, as usual. I like no. 5, 6 and 7 most.
And - sorry Very Happy

Nice try ... Twisted Evil

I own a selphy 400. It's a kind of hate/love. I love it, because you are able to make the neighbours, grandparents and whatsoever immediately happy with shots of their kids. The backsides are printed ...

A successor for the 5D is overdue I think. Canons normal time for replacement of a system is around 18 month. So the 5D is an oldtimer Wink

I don't care, I love the 5D from the first day on. Antidus ...

Srange that you got totally different results than these people:

I think the tolerances are very small so that perhaps the thickness of the adapter can make a difference, even if it's 0.1mm. For ...

Me too! And I prefer wine. Very Happy

Michael
