p.1 #1 · Takumar 200mm f3.5 Takes on The Tulsa Botanic Garden
Maybe the most difficult floral shoot I have ever undertaken. I recently reviewed the box of camera gear I inherited from my father and realized that, with my purchase of the Nikon Z50 II, I could adapt the Takumar lenses to the camera. Having done so and really enjoyed using the heirloom glass, I added this telephoto, buying it from a Japanese seller on eBay. All metal and long. Very difficult to handhold and manually focus while adjusting ev compensation. But,18 aperture blades! I had to try it out.
