Hi nixland,

you inspired me to finally compare my FL 55/1.2 with the FD 55/1.2 S.S.C side-by-side in a controlled setting.
Not the best setting but I only have time for this stuff in the evening when the light is gone.
Results are here:

The pictures where taken with the lens that is not in the picture (in case that is not obvious).
The focus (live view * 10) was on the Tabasco bottle. Used tripod with self-timer on a EOS Kiss X4 (550D). AWB with warm compact fluoro light. Although picasaweb adds some jpeg compression you can zoom in to full size get

OpticalFlow, thanks for sharing.
I just checked your test shots. They are very closed indeed.
Interesting that in wide open shots, the FD bokeh looks a bit smoother (blue book text), but I think it can be ignored, no big deal .
The FD color looks a bit better and it should be due to better coating.

I use the FL more often due it's lighter weight. I wish I had the FD color on my FL but for now I could just add saturation and contrast via PP.

Finally received my FL 55 f1.2 lens and fitted the EdMika EF adapter.
Tests on Canon 1D MkIII. All at f1.2 unless shown on photo.


Ed also has a conversion kit for the 55 FL 1.2, out of curiosity, how close to infinity do you get?

Good question Lightshow! The adapter you mention is the one I have.

The photos posted are the only ones that I've taken so far and I'm away for the weekend, from tomorrow. I believe Ed Mika claims infinity focus is possible, so I'm expecting that.

I'll give it a try next week.

Bif -- I meant to compliment you on your inset detail shots -- very nicely done! Do you do that in PS?

lenticular -- beautiful lens images!

I love Sebboh's FL 55 f1.2 cloud/landscapes right at the start of the thread - convinced me it was worth chasing one of those lenses.


thanks!

regarding infinity focus: if you can't get it straight away with the adapter you should be able to get it by adjusting the infinity stop. this is definitely a lens worth being able to focus to infinity with!

Hi,

Re-learning a monster of a lens, the FD 800mm f5.6 L, using the EdMika FD to EOS adapter; a perfect combo on the 5D.

Regards,

Edd

These are my sisters Dogs taken with the SD14 and Canon FL 55mm f1.2. These are pin sharp at 100% but the process of downsizing, uploading and pasting here makes them look a liitle soft so I've included a couple of 100% crops to give you an idea how sharp the FL actually is.

A few more tests of my FL55 f1.2 on 1D Mk III. ISO 50, AWB. No post-processing except for exp. comp. of +0.5. No highlight reduction, simply as recorded.
