what happened to the thread entitled "glamour shots of the lenses themselves" or something like that... I remember I liked looking at all the different lenses people owned, but I cant seem to find the thread any more. did it get deleted?

Strange. I loved that thread!

thanks!

just out of curiosity, why is it in an archive?

yeah - I enjoyed looking at those! thanks

Just try to post pic of the Voigtlander 90 APO on my 5DII:



It's really sexy ?
Thanks for looking.

That Voigtlander looks like it would be a real pleasure to use.

Here's a pic of the non-ai (I believe) Nikkor 300mm

How's this?

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

2 Pics of the Rokkor 58/1.2





1 Pic of a nice triplet.

Anyone know why that main thread (pics of the lenses) was stopped?

No reason, just post on it and it will raise fro the dead... I might do this

EDIT: oh, it's archived already :-(
so it's time to put new ones here

Archived threads on FM cannot be resuscitated, sadly... threads go to the archives once a number of days have past without activity, so to keep a thread alive, keep adding to it.

Nice! (Do get rid of that motor drive. The Noctilux looks much more impressive that way. )

Hasselblad 2000FC/M, FE 110mm f/2:

I envy you that lens lineup for sure.. I'm getting closer and closer to just deciding to go with a M8 + 35 1.2 just to see if I like the whole RF-experience on a more day-to-day basis!

The Noctilux isn't mine. I was fortunate enough to borrow it for a while.

I don't know the Nokton 35/1.2, but do consider also the Summicron-M 35mm f/2 ASPH and pre-ASPH, both very good lenses, and about a million times smaller. They can be had for around €1200/900 respectively, IIRC.

Nice to see a thread like this again!
This one is my new toy with the OM Zuiko 18mm on it:

Here it goes, some of mine (will try to make 'product shots' later):

My (now slightly bent but still soing very strong) Rokkor

That's a impressive zuiko collection you have alexandre!
Some times I too feel tempted by the OM bodies, but I just can't see myself shooting film anymore. I guess my new EP-1 can adress this issue though

Obrigado ó pá!

The most charming mount IMO. And I can use 'em all on Canon. Oh, on E-P1 too! Simply perfect.

Great Alexandre!

Quite the obsession you have there...

One question: what lens did you use for the group shot? There is some major barrel distortion going on there...

I'm pretty sure he owns an 18/3.5 as well, and I don't see it in the group shot...

ulrikft, sweet M6. Not sure why you'd wanna hang that brick underneath it since the M6 manual film transport is silky smooth and silent. To each their own!

For those that enjoy the classics, here's one of my M3:
