That's some wild looking bokeh.

Thanks Leighton.

Has to better baffles on the 907X body in front of the back with the sensor or the Nikon F to XCD adapter. Because I am using the same Bronica S to Nikon F adapter for the lens. Takes two adapters to use the Bronica lenses.

Also noticed better flare control on the 40mm Nikkor too

Nice surprise.

Edit: So I guess what I was thinking was flare was internal reflections off the sensor on the Fuji. Now the lenses are acting like the do on the film Bronica body

Why less flare?

Yep, 8:30ish before heading into work. Shot at the same time but the first had more direct light.

These Series E lenses on the X-T1 are really enjoyable. I have some of the better AIS primes I could use on the Z6 but find myself preferring these for whatever reason. Need to use the 50/1.2 some more though.

Nice side light. Judging by how the flowers are open, I'm going to say early morning light.

I really like the mfd wide open bokeh of the 35mm. It reminds me of the 24mm f2.0 - which I sold

Thanks, George. Your images with that 75 on the Hasselblad are outstanding, by the way. The tonality, colors, compositions, really good stuff.

Just goes to prove how much science is involved in optics.

Offtrial, the staircase photograph is excellent, smooth transition form the light to shadow.

You asked about the 28mm lenses. The 28/2.8 AIs (late serial #) has very little visible distortion with fantastic close focus ability. It is a sharp performer at specially at close to medium distances. The 28/2 is a much larger/heavier beast with greater distortion but more resistant to flare, higher contrast and sharper for distant scenes.

Perhaps it was a case of bad luck on my part but it took three samples of the 28/2 to find a copy that lived up to its credentials. I use the 28/2.8 AIs far more due to its much smaller size, closer focusing and lower distortion.

Hi, everyone:

Laura, very nice to see your photos from the aerospace museum. I sure missed the SR -71.

Jay, great sunset capture and colors.

This small restaurant was terrific with super friendly service. The house wine was great.





After a few thousand steps, time for a a sweet treat. The gelato in this place is awesome, specially the chocolate which unfortunately, yours truly is allergic to.

Leighton, glad you enjoyed the photo.

The allergy is not great for a chocolate lover but did have a tiny taste.

That is a very cute family photograph!

Thanks Leighton. Have not photographed this location in the snow but maybe this coming winter.

The goose family image is terrific.
