A few of my own humble lenses...First out - the Nikkor 85/2.0 AIS @ 2.8


And the same, @4.0...:


Then... the Nikkor 50/1.4 @ 2.0 (I think)


Just can't resist... here's another Nikkor 50/1.4 AIS @ 2.0 - Believe it or not, this is straight from the camera, with just some curves-tweaking in LR2 and shot with a polarizer. It goes "POP!" when viewed full-size Smile


And here's the Zuiko 50/1.8 @ 2.8.... It has a fungus infestation along the front element rim inside the cemented front group, so 1.8 is rather unusable... Have to get another one!


And now a crosspost... the Mamiya Sekor 135/2.8 @ wide open!


My latest project... A CZ Contax 50/1.7 @ 2.2


And last but not least... The Nikon E-series 100/2.8 wide open... It may look a little harsh, but those were direct sun reflections on a faceted crystal vase.



Hope I didn't just waste your bandwidth here... Very Happy And all you CV125 owners out there - beware! One of your lenses is going to be MINE! MINE! hehehehehee........

I just love this picture. The bokeh is wonderful -- one more proof that one doesn't need to shoot at f/1.2 to get nice bokeh. The film like grain also adds to the mood. Very nice!

Cheers!

Over time I found this site came up quite a bit as I researched various lenses (including a lot of your work) and now finally I'm trying some non 'A' lenses - everything that is interesting to me is happening over here. Its great to share such a resource, I'm glad to be here, thanks!

@ the_Suede - those Nikkor shots look very sharp, both lenses. The tree from the 50/1.4 really pops off the page, great image.

I like Minolta 85mm f2 pretty much! Thank you to sharing many rarities. I would like to see more series in Gallery taken with uncommon lenses what you have. Many thanks in advance!

Hi F16SUNSHINE, thank you.

Attila, I'll take the pictures of the lens for you. I've heared
this lens made in Thailand and now the price in Ebay about
9.99USD. My lens mount is Contax/Yashica mount but I've ever
seen Nikon mount too.


More pictures for Attila,

The nikkor sample have been the most surprising till now, rest i have seen many sample on the forums, but nikkor ones are quite good, is it the PP ?
Also impressive are both the voigtlander lenses.. I wonder i can find one ?
Very rare it seems on ebay !! The 125 looks a must aquisition..
Also the mamiya 135 2.8, i have not seen many complain about this lense.. any more views on it ???
