It's either better in color than B/W or would need some adjustments in the tones. Either way, it's a spectacular image .
I agree with that. I always do a b&w edit of my shots just to see how they look but preferred the color version of this one.

Zaitz, you are a one-man advertising committee for that lens. It's been working really well and I am getting better with MF. I don't pull it out for moving subjects much but it's my go to lens when using the kenko tubes and if I had to do portraits I think it'd work great. I don't photograph people much though.

Zaitz, is that the Rokinon? Great shot
Yup and thanks! The 135 doesn't work that well, for me, with the kenko tubes. The 50mm just gets too close for my liking. The Rokinon is sharp at small apertures even though it seems optimized for wide open use.

Yeah, no kidding... I am pretty much ready to pull the trigger on that one and I wouldn't be doing that until I saw Zaitz' work using that lens.
Thanks. I don't have anything bad to say about it yet. I got a step up ring, polarizer, 77m cap, and a screw in hood that works great. It's just really surprising how well it works.

Also Zaitz, which tube are using with that lens as it looks like a great combination?
I used all 3 kenko tubes stacked for that shot and most of my recent ones. The fern was pretty small so I had to get in tight.
