Hi All,
I shot this over the weekend after someone posted they wanted to see some "wide open" Jupiter 8 shots recently. All of the lights were off in the house except for this single candle. Shot with my trusty Fed2 with a Jupiter 8 that I just recently purchased from the RFF classifieds.
Shot at f2 @ 1 sec. (sorry for the dusty negative...)

For me, my Jupiters are better with BW than with colors. (Same impressions I'm getting from your pics)
Thanks for sharing.

That's really me
My Jupiter-8 is fast becoming my favorite lens. I mostly use black and white but I also like the soft, low contrast it gives with color. With my sample at least. The accuracy is not so great but when stopped down a little, my favorite lens!

Mine is pretty soft-wide open too, but does improve greatly by f4 or so!.

Two more shots from the J-8

Just got some more negs scanned and here are a couple of additional shots with this J-8 and expired Kodak Gold 100. If I recall correctly, I'm believing these are at f5.6 or f8.
