I don't want to despise the lens, but the bokeh is a bit too distracting and rather turbulent. Has an own touch, but ditracts my attention a bit from the in focus areas.
colourrendering is pretty nice though

Hello, first time poster even tho I have been trolling the forum for a little while
Just wanted to post a couple of shots from my Helios-44M-6 58mm f/2.
Dirt cheap, and it may not be the sharpest, but I really love the bokeh it produces.
Edited due to not being able to make pictures show up :/

Hi Attila,
I was amzed at the price of the genuine Leica Bellows, mine is like new and i paid US$140 
KEH have one or two at the moment for US$99
No need to buy a cheap one, at these prices they are a steal.

Thanks for the info, had no idea
I'll try once more then.
Helios-44M-6 58mm f/2 wide open. Maybe not everybodys cup of tea, but It has quickly become my favourite.

I kind-of like bit of, harsh bokeh, one of my favorite is from M42 Fujinon EBC 50mm f/1.4 ( on K20D) ,bit soft but I like it, (that was at f/1.4 and 1/4000sec.)
Second the bokeh is still bit harsh and different lens, PentaxA 70-210 at zoom 180, f/4 and 1/180 sec.
This one taken with a lens as above, zoom 180, f.4 but later in the day, 1/90sec.
the last one was taken with Tamron SP 19AH 70-210, at zoom 200 f/3.5 1/90sec. thrown-in just for fun, if any one would like to check some more of bokeh here they are; http://www.flickr.com/photos/in-my-cocoon/sets/72157621966614917/

Thank you very much I know this kind of bokeh can be quite distracting and harsh, but used in the right way I personally think it can add a lot to a shot. |
