Bifurcator Offline Upload & Sell: On ROKKOR Image & Discussion Thread Post all your wonderful Rokkor images here. There were separate threads for Wide/UW and Telephoto. Here's the index: Wide/UW: http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/954103/ Normal-ish: http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/924270 (this thread) Telephoto: http://www.fredmiranda.com/forum/topic/954105 Now starting with page 70 we're posting all in just this thread. You're more than welcome to keep the others alive if you'd like also! Have fun! _______________________________________________________ Rokkor: What are the differences, your likes, and dislikes about ROKKOR Normal-ish lenses? What do the two-letter designations mean? Like ROKKOR-QD, ROKKOR-X, ROKKOR-PG, ROKKOR-PF, etc. Did you know some ROKKORs were radioactive? ☢=☠ I'm not very good but here some to start it off. This is the Auto ROKKOR-PF 55mm f/1.8. I paid $2 for it and another $2 for an almost identical one: Another ROKKOR-PF 55mm f/1.8 but shorter and with a smaller diameter . The short & small one's focus barrel was frozen up and the other had a tiny nick on the front element. So for $4 total and a front element swap I should have a pretty nice lens. I dunno the going rate for this lens on-line. Maybe it's $3 and I got ripped off. I couldn't wait to swap the front element so here's the shots I took on the way home: Except for the building and it's 100% crop these are all taken at f/1.8 (wide open). I can't wait to see some nice ROKKOR samples from people who actually know how to use them. Jul 02, 2012 at 09:36 PM

Bifurcator Offline Upload & Sell: On ROKKOR Normal-ish Image Thread Here's a thread just for normal-ish 40mm ~ 60mm ROKKORS. My goodness there have been a lot of ROKKOR variations over the years in the 40mm to 60mm range. There are also ones for Wide/UW and Telephoto.

Bifurcator Offline Upload & Sell: On ROKKOR Normal-ish Image Thread I had a search for a ROKKOR image thread but there were none in the last 12 months (with the name ROKKOR in it).
