p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Some test images from the new Venus 2:1 60mm ultra macro


Hallo all,

Don't think I've ever posted on this board before (normally on Alt or People) but I thought you might like to see some images with the new Venus 2:1 UItra Macro 60mm f2.8. I have it in Nikon mount with an adapter to Fuji.

It comes in a very nice pouch (that has room for an adapter too) and is rock solid metal. No worries about construction at all.

Ian,

It would probably mean more to us if the subject matter was more familiar. Also, except for stacking, not much is shot at f2.8.

Looks like an interesting lens although the manual aperture control could be a problem at 2:1 shooting with a rather dim viewfinder if the aperture is preset.
Has created a lot of interest though in the macro community.

They aren't meant to be great shots - just tests as the weather here is so terrible. And yes, that's why I shot at f11 too. Just wanted to be able to gauge the sharpness and DoF at 2.8 and it is impressively sharp.

First proper try but I think I need to get my tripod out of the car!
