FireLight Posted January 2, 2019 Share #803 Posted January 2, 2019 Hi everyone. I recently picked up a Thambar and have been experimenting quite a bit lately. Yesterday I ran into the issue of needing an ND to shoot landscapes wide open in full sun. Just wondering if anyone has used a 49-46mm step down ring successfully on the Thambar without any vignetting. I've got a B+W I'd like to use if I can.

M11 for me Posted February 3, 2019 Share #816 Posted February 3, 2019 Dear Arrow, what makes it difficult for me to grow some admiration for that lens is typically your picture as an example. There is simply nothing sharp on it and it is still shown here 😩 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
0luke1 Posted February 3, 2019 Share #817 Posted February 3, 2019 (edited) I love photography because it’s hunting without violence. You bag a moment in time. To some, it needs to be recorded in ASPH clarity. To others, in thambar romantic mystery (Arrow’s horse is magnificent). IMO, neither perspective is wrong, but they are, by their nature, mutually exclusive. I came close to selling my 35mm 1.4 ASPH Summilux to help fund a Noctilux 50mm 1.0, but the clarity and utility of the 35 is necessary to bag certain moments for me. So it stays in the SKB roller case my GAS requires. And I play with it all, just delighting in the mechanical perfection. But the thambar, in its leather case, is my favorite, next the 75mm Summilux. When I croak, somebody’s getting a good deal. Edited February 3, 2019 by 0luke1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is simply nothing sharp on it and it is still shown here 😩 Güezi wohl Alex, the point of this lens is the low contrast, unsharp, glowy rendering capacity, when needed. Think about Heinrich Kühn and pictorialist photo aesthetics and the atmospheric quality such a lens can achieve. Kühn used a large format camera and a prototype of the Rodenstock Imagon. If you are going after such a look, the Thambar does provide that in a way smaller package on a modern camera. Simply switch your surgical 90 APO ASPH something for the Thambar and have fun taking pictures you take for no particular purpose, other than playful joy or different aesthetic goals. Like for Oluke1, it is my favourite lens Edited February 3, 2019 by Arrow 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
