Thanks, Michiel, your cotton flowers are very nice too !Wow! Raphael! Quiet a lens, sharp and with beautiful OOF area. Looks like the older lenses have that special charactar.
Congrats with your purchase!

This topic continues going stronger and stronger ...
Congrats to all the participants :thumbs::thumbs:
Here's one I shot this morning with the G1 and the newly acquired Leitz Hektor 125/2.5
C U,

Thanks, M5-Guy !Just Stunning :thumbs:
Found one on eBay for $749. BIN
The lens does isolate the leaf nicely with good soft bokeh :thumbs:Thanks Leica - I think this is a good lens, and very cheap (low cost)
One more (again wide open)

Kevin - this one is dear to my heart. I did 10 years of Physics before I figured out another way to go.
RafA pair of lenses having joined my "stable" in the last weeks and one being on the road,
I tought it was time for an update on my F(lower)L(ens)AD(ay) project.
So I gladly present
Rafael's FLAD #27, G1 with Meade 1000mm f11 Mirror Lens
Not the sharpest of lenses, but still a nice bokeh for a mirror-lens, I think
Stay tuned for more,
Rafael
"Morning Dew Take 2". G1 + IGW f1,9.
Here is one from today, sunday, when I had to get a root canal treatment at the dentist.
Didn't make me feel any better yet so I thought I do something with happy colours to comfort myself.
- Cotton flowers -
G1 + Canon FL 35/2.5
Hi Keith,Raf
So glad that you are doing the second phase of your project. With fall coming on will you have enough subjects? Everyone has been waiting for this.
For most or my photographic life I have been concerned with sharpness. But sharpness does not always do the best for the image.
Love the mirror lens
Keith
Very good one Jim!Wow! This thread has legs :thumbup: Well done everyone.
Keith has inspired me to dig through some archived Steinheil lens photos and since I don't post as often as I'd like here are three images. These two lenses rank among my favourites. Is your 55/1.9 lens silver with a silver (some are black) stop-down lever, Keith?
