Couple pix from new 75/2.5 CV...

[fishtek]

Local park, nothing special. BW400CN, exposed at 320. sorry, but I don't know how to put these into a thumbnail format...
I fooled around a bit with the tonality of the negative...there seems to be a "sepia" cast to the raw negative. Still "getting familiar" with the lens and camera (Bessa R), so go easy on me...

Oh, yeah...the drying mop on my back deck...

are these scans from prints?

love the mop shot.

 

[fishtek]

No, scanned negatives. I thought the mop shot was kinda fun, too.

Love the bridge shot. Just got a CV 75 myself but haven't had a chance to shoot with it yet. Your shots are definitely motivating.

Thanks,
Randy

Differant strokes for differant folks................. that lens is just too sharp for me, but great for those who love 'em that way. Enjoy it.

I have been thnking of the 75 to go with the 35 Ultron...The mop shot is great. Motivating indeed.

What was the aperture on the mop shot, do you recall? I'm amazed you could get it all in focus, assuming it was handheld.

Hi, Nick!

Don't remember exactly, but probably 11 or 16. Definitely handheld, and in pretty bright light, too. I'm still getting used to the camera and lenses, as well as trying out film variations. This was shot on BW400CN at what seems to be 320 (dial isn't all that precise on the "R").

Glad you like it.

Regards!
Don

Could it be because it's an electronic file, but the shots although very cool seem to be a bit "soft" to me 😕

Please let me know if this is just subjective on my part.

Thanks

Re: soft images...

Actually, I think you're right. I'm still learning the camera and lenses, as well as the various films available, so I expect to find tack-sharpness after a while.
