Advertisement Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Hi LichMD, Take a look here Testing new CV 75 . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
stuny Posted May 23, 2007 Share #2 Posted May 23, 2007 Jeff - Oh my, what an excellent buy. There's a wonderful delicacy of tones, sharpness and bokeh to this well composed image. Lovely. I think I'm more of a contrast freak than you are. Please see below. I think I over did it a bit, but I'm sure you get where I'm coming from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuny Posted May 23, 2007 Share #4 Posted May 23, 2007 Jeff - And with the color version we see a similar delicacy to the hues. Lovely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

samwells Posted May 24, 2007 Share #7 Posted May 24, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Jeff...thanks for posting these...I was wondering what the CV 75 was like (it seems too good a bargain to be true!). Lovely bokeh in your shot. And - curiously - the colour version has the kinda delicacy of an autochrome (as discussed in one of the other corners of the forum). cheers: Sam Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LichMD Posted May 25, 2007 Author Share #10 Posted May 25, 2007 And thanks again to you Sean. I'll be shooting my sister in laws Mendi ceremony today (the ceremonial placing of henna on the hands and feet) and plan on using the CV75 quite a bit.

robert_parker Posted May 27, 2007 Share #12 Posted May 27, 2007 There's a very nice 'old fashioned' quality to the colours - almost a 1940's Technicolour feel to it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LichMD Posted May 27, 2007 Author Share #13 Posted May 27, 2007 Henry, glad that I could help you decide. This is a great little lens cheers Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
