finarphin Posted October 4, 2016 Share #1 Posted October 4, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) This was taken in March, 2016, with Sony a7ii camera on which was mounted a Leica 90mm Elmar f4 lens, from 1951. I'm going to keep this lens, it has the look I want. Welcome, dear visitor!

otto.f Posted October 4, 2016 Share #2 Posted October 4, 2016 Why not in b&w? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee Martin Posted October 12, 2016 Share #3 Posted October 12, 2016 I'd keep it too given this result. Nice shot 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cnick6 Posted October 19, 2016 Share #4 Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) I bet that IBIS helps quite a bit! Also I think it looks good in color. The dark background brings out the purple which [iMHO] enhances the skin tones of the subject. Edited October 19, 2016 by cnick6 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
finarphin Posted October 20, 2016 Author Share #5 Posted October 20, 2016 Why not in b&w? Otto: Here is one in black and white. Not exactly the same picture, but the same series. I like it better in black and white. Welcome, dear visitor!

cnick6 Posted October 21, 2016 Share #6 Posted October 21, 2016 (edited) finarphin, what adapter are you using with the Sony? I own a Fotasy adapter (cheap) but I just picked up a Novoflex and it's sooo much better than the Fotasy for many reasons. I should have brought my camera today as it's actually sunny outside. Would love to see 42MP with the APO-Summicron-M 75mm f/2 ASPH! Edited October 21, 2016 by cnick6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

finarphin Posted October 16, 2017 Author Share #8 Posted October 16, 2017 I think I finally got the shot I wanted. It's soft; not sure why, but probably because it's 1/30th of a second. But it looks good anyway. Sony a7ii with Leica 90mm Elmar. Welcome, dear visitor!
