I've been sorting through all the images I have stored on my hard drives, looking for a specific set of them, when I came across these, most of which I haven't seen in a long time. They were all shot about 25 years ago.
Minolta MC 16mm f/2.8, taken with an SR-T 101, print film (don't remember what flavor):
The family cat, "Smokey" He was a good cat.
Canon 7.5mm f/5.6 fisheye -- Canon F-1, Fujichrome 100 slide film

Wow some interesting pics there. I like no 8: the twisted tree trunk.
I had a fisheye in the 70's and took much the same type of photos. Nice ones. _________________ Hero in the 'messin-with-cameras-for-the-hell-of-it department'. Official. |

Thanks, yeah I gotta say the twisted tree is one of my favorites also. The twisted texture just seems to go well with the fisheye nature of the photo.
I took all those photos late one afternoon, probably back in 1989. The photos of the cat were taken approximately during that same time frame. _________________ Michael

Hi.
Very nice pics.
The cat's ones are my pref
The fisheyes always were in my list. The rokkor 16 (one of the three first minolta to leica lenses, as all of us know), has a very good rendering.
Thanks gor sharing. |

These pics were taken back in my days as a camera dealer. Every piece I used for those photos -- both cameras and both lenses -- was for sale. These days, I wish I would have kept back a few choice items, and that 16 MC Rokkor is one of them. The FD 7.5 was a very interesting lens, no question, but that 16 was just simply awesome. _________________ Michael

Very nice, the pictures look a lot better than the 16mm Sigma I tried recently. I want a 16, but I want a sharp one. This might be the one. _________________ LENSES & CAMERAS FOR SALE.....
I have loads of stuff that I have to get rid of, if you see me commenting about something I have got and you want one, ask me.
