Volna-3 80/2.8 converted to Nikon

[Gurdie]

Member Stefan kindly relayed this Nikon- converted lens from Bulgaria. The conversion is neatly made, including a little tab to aid mounting the lens. Manual aperture, though.



At least on my D700, Volna is sharp wide open, but the contrast is low. I have to add contrast in PP. The lens also flares extremely easy, the worst lens I have in this respect. Fortunately, I had a 62 mm hood handy.

1. During a blizzard. f/4


2. My daughter´s cat. f/2.8


3. f/2.8


4. There´s a hint of LoCAs noticeable at least in 100 % crop
