f4

the bokeh looks like confetti in the background of the mushroom/toadstool image....cool effect.

Super Tak 55mm f/1.8, hyperfocal was too far to catch this one sharply, but I still kind of like it:

I like this one, can't put my finger on what it is but I like it.

**Rense** · 09-14-2009, 03:32 AM

Jim, thanks! It's one of my favorites from the last weeks too...

I posted this in the M-Club, but since it is a 50, I thought I could post it here too. This is a close up of gold braid.

M50/1.4 using 20mm extension tube. This is gold braid.

I also took some shots with my M Macro 50/4 which I expected to give better results... but I think I got better results with the 50/1.4

K10D and an SMC Pentax-A 50 1.4 @ f/1.4. I will never let go of this lens!

Banjo · 09-14-2009, 09:49 PM

Anyone know anything about the Yashinon DX M42 f/1.4 50mm lens?

georgweb · 09-23-2009, 05:19 AM

the swede, Chinon looks cool as well as the JPG-output of the K7.

Rense, all three shots fantastic imo.

Here's two fifties being brothers in arms:

Zeiss Contax Planar AE 1.4/50 f/2? on K100D. Cropped and contrast.

Yashica ML 1.4/50 2nd version on K100D. Full open no crop no PP.

These two behave very similar and the Yashica may be just a clone of the Zeiss. Full open has already brutal contrast and at f/2.8 you have full thrust. Just another type of lens I
have to learn to use properly I guess. They're clearly on the waiting list for low light stage stuff.
Best, Georg

One from last fall, using my old SMC-M f/2 lens off my K1000 on my K100D in hte Colorado mountains. I got lucky and a bee decided to come visit while I was set up
