I bet you love yours Cool

Some samples from mine. Some friends and their 10 year old son, and their dog Linka, a British Wolf Dog. She is a cross between Czech Wolf Dog and Inuit.

The strange Bokeh behind the 10 year old kid is me messing around to get a dream look, as he was pretending to dream Shocked

Could be...I just have the 50mm X-fujinon F1.9 bayonet but just except it's a very good nifty fifty and haven't bothered to compare it with other 50mm lenses, but one thing I noticed:- it came with a Vivitar 2Xs extender (plus STX-2 Smile ) and the results are very good. erm Maybe it's an interesting new topic i.e. what's the best magnification prime for a 2Xs extender.

It's an eXperimental Fujinon. It is X (ten) times better than the average Fujinon. It is favored by invaders from planet X...

It's actually a bayonet mount Fujinon for the STX and AX series cameras.

I used mine extensively for about a year on a Fujica AZ-1. It was a really fabulous combination. The size of the camera and lens made it feel more like a rangefinder setup than a SLR. It was super quick with the auto exposure system and full aperture metering. The only drawback was that EBC lenses work in full stop markers so there is less control over DOF and exposure.

I'd recommend it for color photography Pete. I found the EBC lenses deliver some of the richest, vibrant colors in the business.

In a rather shameless plug I'm selling a whole bunch of EBC lenses (including the 1.8/55mm) plus the AZ-1 along with its winder.
I'm trying to raise some money to dump into medium format.
