pengland, that results from the el-cheapo look very nice!

connor, thanks, yep, I got the extension ring with the lens, but it also knocks down infinity to (estimated) 3m and that is too limiting for my general use of this lens. But no question, for special needs this will be a great thing.

Day 2 with the 200 APO, D3, f/2.8:

(slightly cropped, dof would have been less if this was uncropped)

Posted the preceding shot on the Alternative Image Thread

Kind regards,
Bernd

No, Bronica was an independent company which was later bought by Tamron. Bronica products were discontinued around 2004.

They made quite a nice series of MF SLR's in 645, 6x6 and 6x7 formats as well as a nifty little 645 rangefinder system.

Decided to visit the "golden boy" again to try a long range shot with the 210mm. Shot from around 175-200 feet. Please excuse the dust spot on the sensor again.

Nice to know there's another shooter in the area. I'm in Brookfield and Jim C and I get together on occasion for some caffeine.

No. It sort of makes me cringe.

Found a 45mm S version at a shop yesterday. Too bad it was in less than desirable condition (heavy cleaning marks, loose barrel, stiff/loose focus ring & generally been around the block a bit) Despite all that, my test shots were respectable, but I passed.

Rob,

Yes it is. It is also interesting that we all have interest in Mamiya 645 glass too.

Jim has been in contact with me and it looks like I may be joining you for some of that caffeine in August some time perhaps.

Nick,

Sounds like a plan. My goal by then is to have at lest 1 lens that JC doesn't (I sold all my Leicas just before he got into them) so he can borrow from me to test vs the other way around for once ;>
