Put a little money aside on a regular basis, as it accumulates it funds the LBA.

And now for the CZ Distagon 18mm 3.5 in ZK mount.

xjjohnno · 08-15-2011, 02:35 AM

Focus not quite nailed on some of these, lens the Auto Takumar 35mm f2.3.

Excellent thread Voe.
I have been looking through here and haven't seen any of the great bokeh of the FA77,
I'll have to head in there at some point.

xjjohnno · 08-16-2011, 04:59 AM

Damn, thought I'd taken pics with my FA77, this must be remedied sooner then later I think.

Oh no! He's going to beat me to it

From the FA 77:
There was a funny shaped light in the back ground that gave me that great big oval shaped bokeh but i didn't realise until i got home. Not the best time to test it with bright direct sun in the middle of the day either.

Now the surprise lens... Introducing the Auto Chinon 50mm F/1.9
I have never really regarded this as great bokeh, but i am beginning to think I just never gave it a chance. It has really impressed me considering I paid $20 bucks for it.

Decent results there, the Chinon is quite the sleeper.
Your nick Chaos_Realm makes me think of a little heavy metal record shop I pass sometimes in North Melbourne. Any connection?

yeh its had me keeping my eye out for other chinons on ebay.

As for the nick name its from way back in my online computer gaming days. It just seems to have stuck around. Purely because I can't be bothered coming up with something else.
