Hi all,

My LBA struck up again ... A pair of M42 Fujinons from last weekend street market:







Since i'm leaving for a week, i just had the time to quickly clean them and take a few shots of the last "symptoms of illness" Wink ...

The 55 Macro had the blades stuck wide open, but it has been really easy to fix this ...

Hopefully, when i'll be back, there will be a bit more sun (or maybe, just a little less clouds and rain), so i will be able to test the 55 ...

Cheers

Very good catch on the macro, thats a valuable piece.

That's not a bad illness to have. You might tell yourself these are innoculation against lens fever. Proven effective for at least a week (unless you have an ebay bid active Wink )

Beautiful pair, the fujinons aren't all that common.

Very nice fujinons.

The macro ones is a beauty.

I read in the forums that the macro is an excelent lens, and the 28 is above average. And read that the 2,8/35 is a real bargain and very good lens.

I don't know really. What about the IQ of the macro, 28 and 35 mm lenses?

Rino.

Hi all,

Well, because of illness (no, not the one discussed here, my friend is just in bed with a kind of gastric flu) the departure for the trip has been delayed by one day, she really needs a doctor ...

Thus, i decided to give a try to my new toys, and, AAAAAAAAAAAAAGH, discovered that these are both the ones with the f/stop transmit flange, so i will have to shave it before using them ... That means i will have to wait until tomorrow before testing them ...

I too have read somewhere that it seems to be slightly better than the Micro Nikkor 55/3.5 ... So, i suppose that at 15 euros each, these lenses were a steal ...

Actually, the antidote lasts about a month for me, which, by a total curious coincidence, matches the time lapse between two street markets here in Toulouse Wink ...


Thanks to all for your comments, now i'm gonna play with the Elmar 90 (found an hood for it) ...
