M 28mm/3.5 & M100mm/2.8

Regardless of how many new lenses I get these two always seems to the most use.

Wow Frank ... you picked up a "MINT" Super Program ... that thing looks like it is brand spanking new.

Also you picked up a nice horde of lenses as well.

I finally found some spare time to take my M lenses to a walk....










All, except the first one are taken with SMC-M 135/3.5. The first one is with SMC-M 50/1.7.
Does anyone know, where could I get a M 20/4???

Yeah, kinda lucky finding such a good camera. Don't think I'd shoot a lot film, but these old cameras are just so nice to hold. Sometimes I just take it out, wind the 'film', focus and fire away

At our Swedish trading sites there are often M-lenses for sale. Since the market is smaller here then on Ebay, you can sometimes find lenses quite cheap.

Blocket.se - Sveriges största Köp & Sälj marknad
Tradera.com - En lyckad auktion har två vinnare

Maybe its hard to understand the language, let me know if you are interested.
6.1kr = 1$

Thanks for the tip! My swedish is not so good and it always take some time to translate, but it´s getting better all the time... or not

OK. Swedish is not so easy to understand for americans (or finnsh dudes). I made a search for you at Blocket. Pictures and specifications are the same.

dosdan, i like your first nightime shot.

frank, wow, your pics are so clear.

fearview, like the green and purple combination.

regken, i love what you've done with your pics.

stevebrot, i love your shot. Wonderful colours.

jgredline, lovely series. I really like the B&W of the boy with the book. Love the fountain shot with all the water spraying too.

pentagor, wonderful series. I was very interested in seeing your 135/3.5 shots, very sharp. The red in the roses are so vivid. The cat looks like my neighbours ginger.


I haven't been able to get out the last 2 days due to bad weather. But i did get this shot about 4 days ago. Taken with my one & only M lens the 50/1.7 but that's about to change very,very, soon.

takumar 85mm f1.9

is it simply my eyes or does anyone else think this lens produces a 3-D effect a little ? Have only had the lens since last night so have not really had a chance to play with it but here are a few.

1.

2.to me it looks 3-d is maybe?

3.a little dark but love the bokeh

4.

Frank, as good as those lenses look on the SuperProgram, you know you gotta get them on the digital and get some shots in here. Especially shots by that 20/4 (drool....)

Fearview, love that shot!

Pentagor, the detail in the pine shows off the resolution, very nice shots.

Javier - I really, really like the Santa Anita Park fountain shot. In fact, shots like that make me want to take up film. Very nice.

Anne, I like the duck quite a bit - how it seems to match it's background so much - tends to draw the eye in even more than if it stood out in contrast to the background. Reminds me of the color-blind tests where you try to see a pattern in the green/brown dots. Very nice. And I expect to see some 135mm shots in, say, 8 days or so!!

Great shots all, love coming back to this thread.

Pentagor ... your cat looks like a spitting image of my ginger kitten

Gokenin ... the Tak 85mm f/1.9 really does produce 3D-ish images ... I can attest to that ... and so can Jay as well (as I bought it off him) ... both myself and Jay can show test shots from this lens that show the effect well.

Yeah, actually the M20/4 was one of my most wanted lenses for a while. Thanks to our forum friend Ryan for passing me such a great little lens

Haven't really used it yet except a couple testing shots. Will see how it performs against the DA21
