A Day Out with the M8

[naruto]

Twice every year, Bangalore hosts a flower show at Lalbagh [the local botanical garden]. I decided to take the M8 for a spin early in the morning. Here are some shots with the M8, CV Ultron 28/2, and the Nikkor 50/1.4.

The glowy Nikkor is wonderful to take portraits, especially of the better half.

Nice work man, smooth! Saw these on your Flickr this morning. That Nikkor is a fine lens indeed. You're using it with Amadeo? Might have to look into it and make it my main 50mm lens.

Thanks. The Nikkor I have is a LTM mount. I got it from Roland.

Though, I do seem to be having problems with the LTM-M adapter. It's a 21-50 adapter, so it triggers the 28 framelines on the m8, and I need to fiddle with it a bit to get the right one up.
