Photographing your Bokeh

Rafael,
Looking back I saw this one I liked very much with your big setup TS.
How did you mount the G1 on it. Is there a Sinar adapter? Just curious.

Michiel
Hi Michiel,

:D curiosity kills the cat:D

Indeed, there is an adaptor from 4x5 to Nikon F-mount, and from there, I use my Nikon F to µ4/3 !
All for sale on the evilbay.

C U,
Rafael

Very nice those last 2 photo' s with the tree, especially the last one, Dan.
Interesting to see you moving to the abstract area!

This lens is not very known, I red it was made as a serveillance lens or/and to use in some kind of robot. It is sharp and I like the bokeh.

Keith, I see you are out enjoying the Ernst Leitz GmbH Wetzlar - Elmar 9cm f/4 lens. Now that I have one, I see them all the time on ebay, they are quite a popular item.

I thought I would post a picture from the 9cm's bigger brother . . . . .


Pink Peony With Feathered Poppies


GF1 with Ernst Leitz Wetzlar - Hector 13.5cm f/4.5 -- ISO 100 -- f/4.5 -- 1/250 -- 13.5cm

The 135mm is also a nice lens that can be found for a very reasonable price. I looked up the serial numbers and the 9cm was manufactured in 1954 and the 13.5cm was manufactured in 1960. I am surprised at what these lenses can do and have great appreciation for the people who designed and built these lenses that produce quality photos 50+ years later!

I took this photo the other night right after the first tree photo, 'City Trees' posted above, as I was on my way home from work . . . . .

PARKING --- EMERGENCY


GF1 with Ernst Leitz GmbH Wetzlar - Elmar 9cm f/4 -- ISO 100 -- f/4 -- 1/125 -- 9cm

Perhaps it is better suited for the 'Fun with 4/3rds cameras/ Image Thread,' but the intent when I took the photo was to create a bokeh shot . . . . .

They all can't be . . . . .

. . . . . after all this is the internet!:D:D:D

Nice one Raf. This 90 - 135mm range seems to work well for Bokehgraphs.

Are you saving the best one til last?

I am planning my RULAD project, but I need to do a bit of preparation first :cool:

Very smooth background Rafael :thumbup:

Dan and Keith, this is becoming a Leitz Elmar Thread :D Sure looks like a bautifull lens, very nice photographs.

Michiel, another very nice one

Aren't Roses beautiful, what a lovely color - I like the bokeh in the bottom right quadrant.
Are you going to tell us how many lenses you have left?

Thanks Keith, it is a little of a coïncidence that I have to take a break for a while simultaneously wih Raphael, but I am to busy right now. Exams etc..

I will go on later and call it LAD Part II.
I am only at about a quarter of my stock now. Time to move :ROTFL:
Just for fun and out of interest I recently bought some unknown not to expensive lenses, like the Robotar, Accura Diamatic,Topcor, Seimar and an old Komura in Leica mount. Most of them surprised me a lot in terms of quality.
All this made my collection getting out of hand a little :rolleyes:, but it is a lot of fun.

I will post now and then in between, if I can.

Michiel - good luck in the exams :thumbdown: Looking forward to Part Two of the Series.

Meanwhile as a thankyou for showing us some really interesting stuff, here is one from the *********************** 2.8/35, right off the press.
