A couple more images made with my K-3ii and EBC Fujinon 55/3.5 macro, probably at f/5.6. . . .

I know we're here for the bokeh, but wow is that lens sharp! Look at that pencil's point!

Ha! There were a number of attempts that weren't sharp, just so you'll know. But when I nail the focus, yes, it's sharp. Just as telling is the cover of the book, I think.

I did apply +9 Clarity and 71 / 1.7 radius of sharpening in Lightroom, and then the jpg conversion gave it a bit more sharpening. But, still . . . it's sharp. (And it produces nice bokeh, too!)

Pepperberry Farm has one of these lenses and could share some really nice images made with it. . . . (At least I think Pepperberry still has this lens. Hard to imagine anyone parting with their copy of it!)

I do still have my copy - it's a super sharp, beautifully clear lens.....

Pepperberry, I know those EBC Fujinon 55/3.5 macro images are digital, but those colors, especially the greens, remind me of Fujichrome Sensia. Or maybe Velvia. Or maybe I'm just imagining it. . . .

Gorgeous photos, as usual! Thanks for posting them!
