One of my favorite rosebushes is blooming now. And since I recently received a package containing four lenses, I thought I'd try them out on the rose.

The lenses are: Auto Sears 200mm f/3.5 M42, Auto Sears 28mm f/2.8 M42, Super Lentar 28mm f/3 T mount and Auto Sears 300mm f/5.5 M42.

#2 Sears 200 @ f/8 with extension tube


#3 Sears 28 @ f/3.4


#4 Lentar 28 @ f/3 with extension tube


#5 Sears 300 @ f/8 with extension tube



All of these lenses are solidly built, beautifully finished and seem to be good performers. It's such a tactile pleasure to use well made manual focus lenses! I had great fun taking these pictures.

And finally, a big Thank You to forum member luisalegria who sent me these lenses as a gift! Smile

Good! I hope you enjoy them.
Try the 200 wide open.

Thank you, jamaeolus.

And will do, Luis. Thus far I've been pleasantly surprised at the 200's sharpness and lack of fringing.
