Lovely bokeh! Great color. Those old Sears lenses are very excellent, and often a real bargain. Sears demanded absolute equivalent quality in their lenses with the big name brands......I know, my Dad was a Sears executive for almost 30 years.

Color reproduction is really great... I really liked the glow effect produced... but at 1:5 macro zone I often could not get object in clear sharp focus besides from the glow...
something wrong with technique?
