Hakkalo, nice soft-glow effect... is this entirely from the Dallmeyer lens, or is there some PP in there too?

Yes,its entirely from the lens without PP
Achro or Achromatic is soft focus lens construction.
Interesting... and would you say that this effect is exaggerated, in any way, by using the lens on modern equipment, or would it have looked the same on contemporary equipment?Yes,its entirely from the lens without PP

Old lenses likes old classic cars .
Of course vintage lens is not as good as modern lens, yet its has its own character. Different lens has different taste ,but not everyone's cuppa tea.:shocked:
I enjoy DIY modify old lenses to be used on modern cameras ,make them alive in digital age.
Daisy was taken with a huge and heavy projection lens made in England

You're certainly getting some good results, and you seem to have an endless supply of vintage lenses!Old lenses likes old classic cars .

I'm intrigued as to how you've managed to find so many? Did you buy a whole collection of them at once, or do you just accumulate them one-at-a-time?
