The Off-Brand Club!!

Ok...We have the "M Club" and the "K Club" and someone started a thread celebrating the M-42 Zeiss Jena lenses. How about a club for the common man! How about a club for the little guys! How about a club for the Cosmicars, the Cambrons, the Focals, the Industrars, the Rexatars, and all the other off-brand, house-brand, little-known, and frankly weird lenses of the world!!

So if you have a shot that truly shows off what your lens can do in the hands of a master (you), post it here. If the lens is truly offbeat, post a picture of the lens as well. Even the lowly Holga (yes Ben, even the Holga...) is welcome here.

So to start things off, I have two shots (both taken yesterday evening) to show off two of my weird lenses...

First my Auto-Rikenon 50/1.7 (m-42, circa 1969)




Next my LZOS MC Jupiter-9 85/2 (m-42, bought new this year from Russia)


(yeah, I know, the EXIF says 50mm...I forgot to update the shake control setting...)

Bring em' on...
