It must be silly season here. Actually it's pouring with rain and I could only get out for a brief walk today. So the mind turns to stupid stuff....like what if I took the prism off a Visoflex so it wouldn't catch on the Olympus 'prism', attached it with an M-lens adaptor to the E-M5, locked up the mirror in the Visoflex and then did something really silly like adding a 560mm Telyt? Imagine—a 1120mm equivalent in 35mm! The first two photos are taken through a rain covered window and show the view with the 12-50 kit lens set at 25mm to give a normal lens field of view (sorry for the light reflection on the window), and the second is the 560mm. Might have been less blurred if I'd thought to use the self-timer as I don't have the cable release.
and finally the whole set-up:
Lunacy!

I got myself (yet another, says my wife) new lens, from a Chinese manufacturer.
The lens is called Venus, it's a 60/2.8 macro lens, capable of 2:1 reproduction.
These are a few first shots with the e-m1
I added a like ! I don't particularly like hens, but your pictures are great : you are doing wonder with that lens.Chickens don't really have Characters. Well, at least, if they do you don't want to know about them.
Whatever, it seemed to me to be a good challenge to try and do some character studies with chickens when the sun came out this afternoon. All of the pictures are taken with the Zuiko 40-150 f2.8 (what a lens)
