Great shots. I notice that you took some of these shot at close to infinity if not bang on. And you actually mount it on your camera with an adaptor. You must have made adjustment to the lens somehow to enable infinity shots. Would you please advise what I could do on mine please. I use Nikon body. |

My very first foray into adapting lenses was a Biotar 58mm F2. I had purchased a Canon 60D as my first interchangeable mount digital camera. Previously I had transitioned from an OM 1 to pentax point and shoot, then a pentax x90 bridge camera. I wanted interchangeable to take photos of a comet I don't recall which as it was not very visible in our region. Looking for options for better lenses than the kit lens for day to day, a Canon shooters forum suggested to save money trying vintage lenses and flea markets, second hand stores and such. I found a Exakta VXIIA with the Biotar, in a pristine ever ready case. The camera case and lens looked completely unused. The mirror had oxidized a bit over the years and I ran one roll of film through it. Then I cleaned it exceptionally well put it in a zip lock bag with some drysorbs. It's been out and test fired every couple years but someday, if all goes well it will be in someone's camera museum. I dug into Exakta history, bought a few more cameras, mostly duds but a couple of nice Tessars, a Pancolar and an ISCO 100mm f4 and I was completely hooked. Some few thousand lenses and many thousands of dollars later I realize I should have just bought the 24-70L the 100-400L and I would have been way ahead financially. _________________ photos are moments frozen in time |

Here we go. I come from the other direction for a special look and feel. Having had the renowned 24-70 2.8 for 10 years with the exactly the idea to avoid collecting lenses. Being digital, we could manipulate/simulate the bokeh to how we wanted but man the Biotar shots melts me completely. |
