Short study on the 2.8cm and 3.5cm 1:3.5.
I need gear portrait lessons from George.
The Kipon adapter is nice with good tolerances, the Fotasy is worth the $12 I paid.
and a long study of the Micro-Nikkor 70mm 1:5 Nippon Kogaku, altogether this is a very rare lens, 400 made, and the father of the 55mm 3.5 and of the Ultra-Micro Nikkors.
Lens can be deployed on M39 to Nikon F, M39 to M42, bellows on F, focusing adapters on Z, it is very versatile with great image at almost any distance. Here it is on a RAF M39 to F adapter.
There is a light baffle limiting the aperture to 1:5, to assure even illumination and sharpness across the frame, the image circle is 55mm, enough for your large format Fujis.

Ok, I'm not familiar with this. What is it?
Hi, Leighton:
It is lining the inside of the adapter with super flat black paper used for telescopes. The majority of adapters have a glossy black finish which can cause internal reflections. I have noticed improved contrast and color saturation.
This is the item I ordered which is enough to do lots of adapters:

Laura just to let you know we drove thru Dayton today and as you can imagine the rain kept us on I-75 and on our way. When it rains in Dayton IT RAINS!!!
Yup. Sideways, even. You still could have called and met me at Shen's.

Love the first one. Great timing and focus. But everyone knows you can't shoot sports with an old manual focus lens, let alone an ancient camera.
Thanks, Leighton.
It would have been much easier with AF but that would not be much of a challenge or fun.
