I like to play with this enlarger lens recently, quiet amaze me..
All shot with NEX, PP usually brightness, contrast and crop or no PP at all










Its not good against strong light, lack of contrast. its dark room lens after all

Amazing shots!

I particularly love the black and white of the old bicycle.

Looks very good! Very nice series! Details are amazing!
How is your lens mounted? I can't focus so far with my M42 bellows.

It can be used for that purpose, with extension tubes or bellow, but I havent tried yet.
@heartcat.. I like that one too, just a shot with BW straight from camera. the lens did well for BW.
@Patrick.... I see you have more enlarger lenses, you must know much than me Wink
@ForenSeil.. thanks
my set up is. Sony NEX5 + Extension tubes for nex ( I didnt use the 14mm and 28mm one and replace it with LTM-NEX adapter to get infinity). I'll add picture of the set up from home.
How do I get focus? just unscrew the lens for closer and screw again for farther distance.
If you used M42 bellows it should be easier to focusing. the problem maybe the adapter is too thick or too thin.

Very impressive! #2 is a 3-D popper!

Thanks Mark, I have to use flash on that one, to eliminate shadow. it was hot day.

The b/w bicycle has such character. The shot is my favorite of this well done series

Enlarger lenses are excellent and Rodenstock lenses are one of the best, excellent series!
