Beautiful illustration of the things you have been saying to me recently.

Good lens design and manufacture - check
Human with knowledge of how to make the best of the lens - check
Human who has a good eye for a photo - check

Tell us about the lens? Very Happy

Great images and uncommon perspective which makes the images much, much more interesting. Yes, please tell us something about the lens.

Thanks guys.

Well, it is a simple HYPERGON, f11/26mm that I have adapted to use it on my Lumix.

Very clear sharp shots but I think you would find this walk more exciting:-

Thanks, but I am able to find in a little weed flower on the way, overlooked by all, the beauty and grace GOD has placed in everything. I don't need "spectacular" or "exciting" to be one with nature. Wink Have you noticed when watching that video, that it is more about the person filming and less about nature around? I strive for the opposite and want to show the beauty and magic around us through my images;)

What fantastic results from such an old lens! I really like number 2 Smile

Thanks Graham. Yes, a few thinks came together very well, the late golden sun, deep on the horizon, the blue sky and the fast approaching dark cloud - and well, the ability to grasp that short moment on a very windy day.

a David-Lynch-like point of view, I think that the most effective are the first three because of the sky background which makes them epic.

Sure, that sun + sky made my grab my camera and head out to the park and when I saw the clouds approaching, it got even some dramatic scenes...

Stunning as usual Klaus, and I certainly agree with you about showing nature for what she is

A really nice show of the capabilities of this lens (and your ability of draw them out).
I join the comments of the colleagues, I'd also point out that the last one has impressed me with the fine details and the redish tones so well caught. At first I thought were samples from a 5D...

Regards.
Jes.

I'm a little secretive about that new lens find, as no-one has ever seen such, so bare with me until I know more Twisted Evil

Ok, I found few images in the net, but now I will do not show the link.

Not of that one for sure Wink

The classic Hypergon is easy to find and there are many images of that to be found.

How about reading my friends Marco Cavina's very fine article about these super wide angles? Here:

That´s clear. Can see a B&W filter on your lens and the haptic looks relatively modern.

Nope, just a B+W filter adapter ring Wink. The lens has been adapted using a modern (common) focusing helicoid, that's what you see.
