Here's a couple from some test rolls of Portra 160VC:
(added one more)
First shot was at f16 and 1/15sec shutter speed, no tripod. I may have forgotten to pull out the hood in that one.

Glad you finally got the 60.
Good to have pix of the same places with the different lenses.
Claimed to you some time ago that the 58 (60) was the best of the three KO lenses. In no way am (or was) I putting the other two down. They are excellent. But the 60 is really superb.
Hope you are happy with what it produces. |

These larger files are a testament to what I already felt about the lens from your other post.
The interface between shadow and light under the bridge is awesome. 
Though taken at 1/15th, I'll bet that having the KO in your hand, with its weight and ergonomics, probably made it "no problemo".

Jmiro, thanks for your comments and yes, I love this lens! It will probably
stay permanently on the camera it arrived with.
Laurence, the lens is equivalent to 28-29mm. Yes, the heft of this camera
really helps (along with the nifty grip and strap) to steady things when
shooting. The camera was originally designed by the Simmons brothers and
then manufacturing was taken over by Konica. The Koni Omega Rapid was
the first in the Konica series. The Rapid 100 and 200 are Mamiya made. I
got the Konica Omega Rapid with 60mm lens (and VF!) for a song. 
BTW, the blur of the white car between pillars attests to the slow shutter
speed.
Appreciate your comments. |
