I had the first roll of this sitting in a Ferrania Astor I wanted to try out - It's like a 120 folder but with a 'pop out' lens rather than bellows. I've had it in the car for a couple of weeks now so got it shot and processed on Monday. Exposure was a little off though.

This is a local Windmill that I happened to be passing. Not good scans I'm afraid - the scratches are not on the frame but on the CD case a used to hold the slide down on the scanner (must get some of that AN glass).

Wonderful! That's one to print if you have a darkroom setup!

Kiron - year of production? in Manual Focus: English : Manual Lens: Usage

Thanks for link. Unfortunately, it doesn't really help.
I know that site and it's a nice one, but it doesn't tell anything about exact production years.

New Lens...Vivitar 135mm f/2.5 TX in Manual Focus: English : Manual Lens: Usage

Wed, 10 Mar 2010 16:29:33 +0000

I had that lens way back around 1978 - give or take a year... Used it on my Olympus OM-1. It was very sharp, and had a nice heft/feel to it. Very solid.
I currently have the 200mm f3.5 with the TX mount for olympus - use it with an OM to EOS adapter on my Canon 40d. But don't really use it much - moving to autofocus as my eyes get older.

Looks good, although the missing screws are strange. No big deal if you are converting to EOS.

When I travel, I usu carry a Sigam 24-60mmF2.8 EX for casual shooting. Very handy and small lens

I have watched the pic, Martin. Didn't see CA, nice greens, bokeh not distracting, good resolution too. It seems to be a really good lens.

One more time, thanks.

Rare Snow Day in Manual Focus: English : Gallery

Nice and funny series , Will !
It's pleasant to see mimosa and palm trees bending under the weight of the snow ; here in Provence it happens rarely , maybe , once every 20 years on the coastline and in particular in Toulon . This year it snowed in Nice , Cannes and St Raphael but not in Toulon .

I put the one of the Fujinon@F8 online. I'm very sorry, I don't have the time for a proper comparison yet including the whole gallery. :(
