thanks guys -- I was really impressed by pancolar 1.8/50 --

Attila has mentioned in some post before that Pancolar 1.8/50 is one of the best prime lenses -- or the best (?) Smile --

I have to agree -- it's one of the best prime lenses I have tried Smile

Hello. Did you use flash or any external light? Or an extenson tube? Handheld or not?
Excellent pictures. I'm new here and new to manual photography. I have a few manual lenses and I want to make such photos like theese.
I'm from hungary. Any of you?

Hi horvlas -- Welcome aboard ! I know that Mr. Attila is from Hungary...

I used a flash Canon Speedlite 430 EX (no diffuser)
without any other additional lights except normal light in the room..

Shots with Pancolar 1.8/50 number --2,3,4,5 -- no flash, no any other source of light except the sun comes through window .. Smile

No extension tube was used -- all of these lenses are good for close-up pictures --

especially Flektogon 2.4/35, and of course CZ makro-planar 2.8/60 which is designed for macro shots

The quality with ALL these lenses is GUARANTEED Smile -- feel free to ask for any purpose or application of MF lenses (the best forum is MF lenses) and post here your pictures taken with MF lenses..

Hi ChrisLilley !!!

Thanks for comment --

I have to agree -- sharp, sharp and sharp again !
I haven't got a big experience with AF lenses such as Canon but I am getting worried that I don't need it Smile

P.S.

This is a second time you've scared me again with your bug in your sign Smile

Ok, I understand. Was the flash directly pointed, or reflected from the ceiling?

no direct flash -- just reflection from the ceiling --
