Cheapy ($60) home made TS from Zeiss Nettar 6x6 folder. Lens is Novar-Anastigmat 75mm f/3.5. Not really as wide as I'd like but fairly versatile. Sharp lens btw,
Thx Dancan! It allows for macro (up & down from lens mount), Tilt (top nob) Shift (bottom & side nob) and swing (bottom nod). I need to replace the side nob w/ something bigger like the bottom one, it kills my fingers as it is. That's at least a $1.50 upgrade though
Doesn't the heliar streak/vignette like hell on oly's 4/3 sensors? The 15 is a symmetrical wide angle and far from telecentric, the 12 has a similar angle of incidence from the rear element to the sensor but a fair chunk more optics up front.
Sorry about the UV filter on the 35mm summilux-m asph, I was fumbling in my excitement and forgot to compose the shot well, pick a nice background or take off the filter

Sweet, Jordan
I'd miss a bit of WA, maybe add a Heliar, but this is already... convincing as a travel kit!
Yeah, I'll probably eventually add the upcoming panny 14/2.8 or more likely the newly announced Oly 9-18, which is very compact...provided it's good optically. I'm not too keen on using a rangefinder wide angle, as I would feel really limited by the 0.7m MFD, which is just torture for a very wide lens. For longer stuff, I'm probably going to pick up a Minolta MC to m4/3 adapter and use my 135/2.8.

thrice, that combo is gorgeous! Is that an M7 I see peeking out from behind as well?
M6, but they look the same from that angle so well done
Nate, thanks mate, it's been a 76 day wait that feels all too worth it. I feel like a dick though because I didn't get time to shoot it properly today, it arrived in the mail then I had to shower & shave and drive to Canon Tomorrow!

Ah, you lucky SOB, Daniel... Keep us posted I just got myself a Canon LTM 50/f1.2 and really love it on my M8. Wish I had an M9 for it though... Have fun!

. At least I didn't pay that much! It still wasn't cheap though.
I'm interested in seeing some shots with that.
Tomorrow!
