Your image is painfully sharp, Gohaj! :D

For the last picture, it was using a canon 100/3.5 lens and i dont think i sharpen it at all in post processing. At f/3.5, it is quite sharp. And I am not sure why, whenever I use any tele lens with flash, the pictures look sharper. Flash used is Nikon SB-22.

Rick,

thanks for your kind words. I would give something to look into the geeses head while it is watching ouit for the duck...

Which lens have you taken for the shot with the two nice ladies? And why have you so much "Jupiter" on your pics? I am assuming for the bookeh ;-)

Cheers,
Andreas
 
I've only got one M-mount lens at the moment, the one that came with my R-D1; a Voigtlander 35mm Ultron.
But I've been informed that the LTM-adapter ring was shipped yesterday.

I like Bokeh, but in that photo it was not really intentional.

The only Jupiter I have is the Jupiter 8 on my Kiev 2a, it does not get enough exercise these days :(
 
@ Ahmed: I really like the last two shots in your series. Perfect focus on the eye of the guy in the shop, and the worn shabby cards shop sign tells something about what can happen to dreams and hopes.

So, here is my next one. Some days ago, I bouht an Jupiter 3 Zeiss Sonnar copy (1,5/50mm). Unfortunaly, it has series backfocus when used with my Epson R-D1, but I found a pretty good repair instruction in the web:

It's a perfect manual, thanks, Brian! Only thing to do is to go to the next hardware store, by a couple of tiny screwdrivers and invest one or two hours to gain a perfect Jupiter 3 fast lense.

Here we go (okay, the motive is not really sophisticated, but it was the best at hand unless you want to have a self portrait of me and look for the wrinkles around my eyes to get an idea of what this lens is able to do...):



Cheers, Andreas

PS: The data...distance around 4 feet, aperture 1.5, exposure time 1/60 sec, ISO 800, taken in the night with normal room light, automatic white balance. Not so bad for a 51 year lens, isn't it?
