Entirely shot with Super Takumar 1.9/85. Lighting was funky and there's evidence of noise reduction - but tell me what you guys think

Wayyy too much purple fringing to be usable!
No, you really show that you have mastered the lens. I like your style and subjects. Well done!

nice shots & compositions, you got a nice place or did you crop
what speed, apperture and iso did you used ?
those parameters could help rate quality
look like flare reduced contrast and resolution |

 Thanks! Very easy to shoot these poets - strong emotional expression.

#2 and #4 almost no cropping at all. #1 and #2 original horizontal, crop to vertical framing for more focus.
Shooting 1/125-1/200 for most of this, wide open aperture 1.9, and ISO 1600. Lighting condition is too harsh for me (but I guess it's normal for those who used to shooting concerts and bands).
I'm thinking that wide open aperture causes flare - shooting straight into lights was problem as well... Lens don't handle flare the best. I still like it |

What are you using for noise reduction? Any chance that you'd be willing to post an image before the process? I always like to see before/after noise reduction shots just to see what they're capable of... |

Thanks dave
Here are some without NR. They actually don't look bad. I just do NR because of habit...

GBP100.00 is great price for this lens - sad you miss it 
I get mine in equivalent GBP150.00 - but near to mint condition. Was good deal in my sight. |
