normally i don't buy doubles of stuff i already have ( variants yes, doubles no), but i found a Tamron SP 01A for $5 and it's probably my most-used travel lens, so figured it'd be good to have a backup.

A lovely example of a KMZ Zenitar-M 50mm f1.7 M42 arrived today, my birthday. It came from the Russian Federation. It was marked "gift". The Russians seem to know everything about us! Laugh 1

The last but one of my 'wanted' Canon FD Lenses arrived today, both in really nice condition. I now have a tight but high quality collection of the 20-35L, 28-85, 135/2, 100-300L and these two top L-series beauties;

Just won this camera and lens on the Goodwill website. Hopefully the camera is a runner, it's rarish, and interesting. I already have an ES 35mm lens to be used on it as well.

The Fujinon 1.8/55mm certainly is one of the best vintage normal lenses I have seen. It's pretty good over the entire field even at f1.8.

There was one on ebay last night with stuck aperture. I didn't grab now it is gone.

Maybe someone would eventually adapt this lens too. Until then I will enjoy it at 720 pixels. Probably not much more resolution than was expected from an old security camera lens.

Always wondered if in the future studio lighting kits will be packaged as mini drones with strobes and sofboxes that arrange themselves to certain presets.

Who makes the "tripod"?
lens covers 1/3"
Lighting Directors will marvel at the possibilities of your lighting swarm. Too dangerous for Rock concert imho. You saw China Olympics swarms?

They can be built a la carte or as pre assemble tuned bind-and-fly like this micro. Weight penalties drive the smaller sensors unfortunately.

Interesting. RaspberryPi sells a 1/3" 12Mp camera with C/CS mount for using better lenses. https://www.raspberrypi.org/products/raspberry-pi-high-quality-camera/ Somebody made something https://dojofordrones.com/raspberry-pi-drone/

i have a few of their c-mount tv lenses, but have never seen their name on a photography lens.. looks like it's also marketed as a 'revuetar', anyone know who made it? it will be, in any case, my first japanese tessar.

It looks identical to the one I have badged as 'Autoflex'.

I also have a D.O Industries 35mm F/2.8 lens which is a generic early Mitake lens.

If I had to guess the maker of the 50/2.8, Cosinon might be a good bet.
