Thanks, I had been waiting for those. They look nice on my small netbook screen, have to look again at home later. What's your impression so far? What version/adapters are you using?

Aloha,

Stefan

I don't quite know what to say.....I've never had a fish before
and the shooting style is alien to me. I have always spent most
of my time behind a telephoto. The Rokinon is on a Canon EOS
base and hence adapter.

Stay tuned as I will post more, this time structures, and try some
longer exposure times. Build wise the lens looks great and I'm sure
that I will have fun with it. More fun than my cat........

I have been a fan of WA since I had a 21mm Carl Zeiss Lens for my Contax G2. Your WA series looks great.

great stuff ... strange (what I assume to be) flare in this image:



would love to see a pic of it on the camera ...

dam it ... now I'll need another adaptor!

any chance of posting some 100% or 50% samples? Edge and center?

no...PS, filter, render, lens flair, movie lens.......
also the colors were bumped in Topaz and it
was run through a "watercolor action"..... then
the layers were played with as to opacity.

I'll take some shots from a tripod so we can
"pixel peep" soon. :)



This is normal lens flair for the 8 but again the
image was run through Topaz
