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.

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

Hi Kris, what lens were you using? Or have I missed it?

I love to use old lenses on modern cameras as you know, Kris. These are lovely, particularly the first one.
Best wishes,

Andrew
