p.3 #1 · Your worst lens best shots


Gee, some of you guys's worst lenses are in my best collection. :P

My worst so far is a commercially manufactured (SRP $120) pinhole lens. And my best shot with it so far is just a shot of my LCD displaying an e-pay web page:

And it almost looks OK-ish scaled way down:

A 125$ pinhole, are you kidding? I made myself a pinhole just a couple days ago, all it took me was a piece of sheet metal, a needle, a whetstone, some double-sided sticky tape and 15 minutes of my time, and the results are better than that.

Nikon's cheapest DSLR of last year with its kit lens. While just 100 bucks, the 18-55 DX is not your grandpa's kit zoom.

A few from the Canon 50mm f1.4 USM. An abysmal performer wide open, incredibly soft outside the center of the frame, nasty barrel distortion, and noticable coma even at 2.8.
