Floral Portrait @ SBG

Yesterday I headed down to SBG ( Singapore Botanical Garden ) to test a new lens set up. I am using a Olympus OM Auto Bellow with Rodenstock brass lens fitted into a extension tube. The focal length is 240mm and it will be 480mm on my Olympus E-510 ! Surprised I am amazed by how close it could focus given such a length. The colour it produced is vivid and vibrant. Following photos do not have photoshop except for resize and watermark. It was my 1st attempt using such lens set up.

You are now in the "very old lens club". Fine examples and an interesting hookup

wow! first class results! impressive setup, must be tricky to focus a 480mm on bellow

Truly fine results! Sort of a "creamsicle sharpness". Not a lot of contrast, but the fine color renditions and smooth flow makes up for it very very well.

Outstanding.
