mitchell Posted January 7, 2007 Share #2 Posted January 7, 2007 Nick, I like your shots and think they deserve more space between them. Suggest you hit the enter button to make space. Best, Mitchell Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
devils-advocate Posted January 7, 2007 Author Share #3 Posted January 7, 2007 Thanks Mitchell -- you're right about the spacing. I'll try that next time (doesn't seem to work in "edit") Cheers, - N. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike prevette Posted January 7, 2007 Share #4 Posted January 7, 2007 Great shots Nick. I love that little lens, and you sure are a sugeon with it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
khanosu Posted January 7, 2007 Share #5 Posted January 7, 2007 Nick, I do like the second one; nicely done. Furrukh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sdai Posted January 7, 2007 Share #6 Posted January 7, 2007 Nice shots, Nick. The reason why you can't insert a space between the two shots is probably because you uploaded them attachments ... I guess the trick to get around this is to make two posts with one shot attached to each of them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
asfeir Posted January 7, 2007 Share #7 Posted January 7, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Great shots. I can't get this lens off my M8. It is so small, so sharp, no focus is necessary, just look through the vieewfinder and COMPOSE! What a difference with wide angles on SLR! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_big Posted January 7, 2007 Share #9 Posted January 7, 2007 Here's one I shot last weekend with my M8 with the 15mm CV. Great lens. Welcome, dear visitor!

cbretteville Posted January 7, 2007 Share #10 Posted January 7, 2007 Cool shots. Just got mine but haven't sen any results yet. The 'noon' position is slightly off using either of my CV ltm-m adapters. For my other CV glass I've not worried about it, but the tulip shaped 'hood' on the 15 isn't adjustable. Has anyone seen increased vignetting as a result of this? I guess it is really a question for those that have experience with the lens on film. - Carl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
carstenw Posted January 7, 2007 Share #11 Posted January 7, 2007 The noon position is also off on mine, but on the M8 you wouldn't see any bad effects, since it only uses the center of the lens. I have not yet developed the films from my M6 to see what happens there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveEP Posted January 7, 2007 Share #12 Posted January 7, 2007 Noon is off on mine too.... so that would appear to be normal. I had wondered about that.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone seen increased vignetting as a result of this? I guess it is really a question for those that have experience with the lens on film. - Carl Carl (& Carsten) It is very easy to alter the 12 o'clock position of the CV 15mm. Mine was 'off' by about 10 degrees so I followed the advice of a fellow forum member (whose name I have unfortunately forgotten) to adjust it. Using the appropriate jewellers screwdriver, remove the 4 cross-head screws holding the screw mount in place. Lift it off, making sure that you note its orientation to the lens barrel (temporary marks on lens barrel and mount may be wise). Underneath you will find a thin annular copper washer with 4 holes in it, with corresponding holes in the barrel beneath. With the tip of a screwdriver, slide this washer in the appropriate direction until another set of holes appears in the barrel. Reassemble the mount making sure that the orientation is as close as possible to the original (it will have rotated by the angle between the two sets of holes). Make sure that the 4 screws are fully tightened and try the lens on the camera - if it's worse than before, you have moved it in the wrong direction and know exactly what to do to put it right...! I hope that this helps Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbretteville Posted January 7, 2007 Share #14 Posted January 7, 2007 John, Thank you! The mount on my CV 25 and 75 seem to be the same. Do you know if they can be adjusted the same way? I know it dosen't matter, its just one of those little things that annoys me. - Carl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it dosen't matter, its just one of those little things that annoys me. - Carl Carl I don't have either of these two lenses so the simple answer is that I don't know. However, if they were my lenses and the mount looked the same as that on the 15, I'd certainly give it a try. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbretteville Posted January 7, 2007 Share #16 Posted January 7, 2007 I'll give it a shot and report back. - C Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cbretteville Posted January 7, 2007 Share #17 Posted January 7, 2007 It works! Yay!! Both my 15 and 25 stopped just short of the mark. So noon was more like 1130. I moved the ring one hole clockwise (the lens was on the table cap down, mout towards me) on both lenses and now they're perfectly alligned. I couldn't remove the fourth screw on the 75 (drat!), so I'll have to live with it being this way, but at least I don't have to worry about the 15's tulip. One thing to note is that the steel mounting plate on all my lenses have a round notch indicating the noon position of the tread. Noting this makes it easier to see what is up and about how far you have to move the mount. Thanks again John. - Carl Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
