roguewave Posted April 8, 2010 Share #21 Posted April 8, 2010 Advertisement (gone after registration) Mark, congrats on the new lens. I remember Rolo's frames from last year at this event. It would be interesting see some shots wide open without any toning or much post processing, just to get a sense of how the lens renders the raw image. The image made stopped down has great detail & depth in the dark tones. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tmldds Posted April 8, 2010 Share #22 Posted April 8, 2010 Nice shots with interesting bokeh! Please post some more... I am trying to decide whether to get this lens, or the Zeiss 50 Sonnar??? Tri. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Pope Posted April 22, 2010 Author Share #23 Posted April 22, 2010 Hi Melissa apologies for the slowness of my reply. I'm glad you liked the shots. These shots were taken with a M8. Best wishes Mark Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The image made stopped down has great detail & depth in the dark tones. Hi Ben, generally, the shots don't need a great deal of post-processing. I tend to just alter the curve and tweak the contrast a bit and this is often enough to make a pleasing image. I really do like tis lens. When I bought it, I was a little worried that I wouldn't use it too much, but it makes a great general purpose lens. Not quite a 'body cap' but close! If you're interested, I have just posted a new Nokton shot on my website. It's in B&W but untoned. The URLs is Monochrome Magic - Gallery Pages. I can't post it on here as it exceeds the size limits for the forum... Cheers Mark N Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am trying to decide whether to get this lens, or the Zeiss 50 Sonnar??? Tri. A difficult choice I imagine. I don't have any first hand knowledge of the 50 Sonnar, but I have heard good things about it. As I said in my resply to Ben, I am delighted with the Nokton.

PauloSm6 Posted April 22, 2010 Share #26 Posted April 22, 2010 Very nice, #1 is my favorite with it's vintage look. The scene could be in the '40's. Paulo Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Pope Posted April 23, 2010 Author Share #28 Posted April 23, 2010 I would like to see a bit more DoF, have you considered stopping down a bit? LOL! I'm actually considering having the aperture blades welded open... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
