James - I made a white bread and curiously there was no improvement in its usual coarse texture but it rose tremendously.
I used no milk but only butter in the roux.
Barbara made some breads again. The one on the right is a seedy bread that I have each morning for breakfast. This time she used the tanzhong (milk bread roux) on the seedy bread, and it did raise better plus changed the texture. A lighter crumb and better chew than previously. The other bread is a cobb of olive bread - also delicious. I used the 28mm f2.8 ais paired with the modified tc-16a. This time I don't think it is a good pairing, because it seemed to soften the image sharpness.
Rafael,
Beautiful car photos with the 5.8cm f1.4. I helped a friend in high school restore the four door version of that Cadillac. It was a dusty rose, and had sat in a farmers field for many years. The car weighed so much (5000 pounds +) that the tow truck couldn't break it out of the dirt. The farmer hopped on a Ford tractor with a hydraulic scoop plus chain and had it out within minutes. Thanks for sparking the memories.
Jim

The edges are from the reflections of the extreme edges of the fisheye optics. Most images you see posted with this lens are cleaned up and/or cutout in post processing to show a clean circle. The entire image circle falls within the borders of the sensor. Since keeping the sun out of the frame was impossible with 180 degree FOV it caused the flare you see even outside of the image circle. Blue in the upper right.
In this case I liked those rough edges and gave me a feel as though I was looking out from inside something. So I didn’t clean it up like I normally would.
If that makes sense

Really does look like you're looking out of something. Why does the edge look that way?

I was going to ask the same question about the edge.
Also D5? New purchase?
