Newest Acquisition in Miniature Wonderland (Hamburg)

Hi!

Two weeks ago I stumbled across a hidden lens in the second row of a window shelf at one of my favorite photo stores in Hamburg. It was a Kiron 105mm f2.8 Macro in mint condition (Like new, minus some loss of paint at the markings). The price tag said 59€ and after I got the salesman very suspicious, asking three times if the price was correct, I had to take it!

So it came to pass that my wife and I went to the miniature wonderland in the Hamburg Speicherstadt, which is perfect for some macro action! As it is inside it also involves high ISO, only f2.8-f4 and some unwanted camera shake! I hope you enjoy anyway!

As always with a new lens, no pp!
