dkCambridgeshire Posted August 13, 2018 Share #82 Posted August 13, 2018 (edited) First test shot Yashica 500/8 Reflex lens with Novoflex LT/CONT adapter. SL, ISO 1600 handheld 1/320 sec... neighbour's car at 40ft distance; wet weather & dull lighting. Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! An old lens but has potential … and would expect result to improve by using a tripod in better light … and with more time for lens to acclimate … this image was taken straight out of the courier's box before the lens had time to fully acclimate. dunk Edited August 13, 2018 by dkCambridgeshire 1 Link to post Share on other sites Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members!

Ivar B Posted August 30, 2018 Share #87 Posted August 30, 2018 Advertisement (gone after registration) I tested out an ancient Russion 4.5/300 mm on the SL, using a dirt cheap M42/L adapter from China. The adapter just arrived and a few quick handheld shots from where I live reveals that this is not a bad lens at all. Welcome, dear visitor!

dkCambridgeshire Posted September 29, 2018 Share #90 Posted September 29, 2018 A 2017 vintage lens experiment which plan to repeat in better light … these pics were taken in relatively low light https://www.l-camera-forum.com/topic/277057-when-280mm-focal-length-is-insufficient-we-can-improvise-…/?hl=vixen … there are lots of APO astronomical refractors available which can be adapted for long focus photography. Their limitation is the fixed aperture but this need not be a hindrance with modern cameras' high ISO imaging capabilities … provided also the limitations of manual focus are accepted. And the cost of e.g. a s/h APO astro refractor is substantially less than a modern Canon / Nikon / Sony 400mm/600mm/800mm prime telephoto lens dunk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DMRMAN Posted October 13, 2018 Share #93 Posted October 13, 2018 On 7/9/2018 at 3:44 AM, dkCambridgeshire said: Further to my previous posts Nr's. 57 and 58 in this thread: Yesterday, I visited the same local nature reserve pond armed with SL 601, vintage Novoflex Noflexar 600mm f8 and Leitz APO 2x extender to photograph dragonflies and birds Welcome, dear visitor! As registered member you'd see an image here… Simply register for free here – We are always happy to welcome new members! This was the first time I'd tried the 600mm Noflexar in 'close-up' mode i.e. using the Novoflex mount built-in bellows to reduce the minimum focus distance. Using the 2x extender doubles the focal length to 1200mm and reduces the max aperture to f16. The lens diaphragm was stopped down by half a stop thus the resultant taking aperture was approx. f19 cont'd … This is a fine approach!! and the results speak for the commitment, perfect photos in terms of everything - even the Leica will be proud of these:) Having had the priviledge to try my changes/luck with the R9/DMR system and the 100mm Apo R-lens I feel humbled in front of these photos:) They are fine material for the scientific community which know all too little about these dragonflies, which serve as valuable measures of the health of the biotype where they reside. All knowledge of their mating times and habits might even serve as an early sign of warning when we should be alarmed and investigate the specific area in concern, in terms of the variables we can affect (amount of fertilization and toxins (?) among other things we do not know yet. However, I hope that these photos- and all alike (?) will inspire younger photographers try to match these, as finding these insects and being able to move in the areas in the correct way will be of "touristic value in the future" ie analogically show what is happening in Brazil/Pantanal on the wildlife areas -and will be soon similar of similar income source here in Europe, if we do not understand soon enough about the sensitivity of these different biotypes close to us. 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
