A couple of firsts for me today. I got some shots with the T90 native FD mount and the FD 85-300/4.5 for the first time. In addition, I used my first Series 9 drop-in front filter, which the 85-300 is set up for -- talk about large! I bought an extra 82mm step ring so I could mount the filters on 16-35L II or 24TSE II if I desire (would have worked on the ZE 21/2.8 if I still had that.). The 82mm seems small in comparison to the Series 9.
The only filter I have so far is a Schneider Warm Black Frost 1/8. It does reduce contrast and keep the blacks black. I will probably get one without the warm effect, as I shoot a lot in low angle warm lighting. All these shots are using this filter on this lens.
It is pleasant to use the lens directly, as intended, without converters or adapters. I also like the large cinematic-type Series 9 filter -- I\'m sure I\'ll be getting a few more.
Apertures are generally f/8, and occasionally f/11. Fuji Superia 100 film.
f/22, 1/10 sec
