I was just playing around in the garden with this lens fitted onto my K20D with a 21mm extension ring. All shot around about f/4 give or take a stop. Terrible weather for this sort of thing (very strong gusts of wind) and the images are not anything to get excited about, but they do show the character of this old(ish) bit of glass.







Best wishes, Kris.

The other two though I am not very fond of. Resolving power seems too lower compared to the first picture.

I think that has more to do with the very windy conditions than the lens. Those two were blowing around much more, the first one has a thicker stem and is in a more sheltered spot. I should have just posted the first one I guess. Self-censorship is a skill in itself!

I can certainly relate to that.

EDIT - forgot to say, nice colors and bokeh for all, and nice sharpness on the first.
