I think apple tree delays the budding of leaves to make bees job easy and give them possibility to visit every flower)

There's some really fine petal detail in that first image, good exposure control too, well done indeed.

Actually, I believe they are both wonderful. My question is; In photo number two, is it common with that lens to produce some purple fringing? I didn't think that 50mm lenses had that issue. I do get that at times with my telephoto lenses. At any rate, well executed. Many thanks,

Antonio

Really lovely. The first is my favorite.

Hi Antonio,
I think purple fringing is not common for this lens. I find in Internet concern about chromatic aberrations in Industar-61 L/Z only for wide open aperture.
I know that this lens has Tessar optical scheme, so it has similar features specific for Tessars. It has two peculiarities: some elements are made from lantan glass and star-like bokeh for some aperture numbers.

Next photo I made with the same lens as the first two. What can you say about the fringing on it?

This is a very nice photograph, and I cannot locate any purple or any color fringing. Speaking only from my own experience, I get purple fringing when taking a photograph of a bird out on a branch, and there is a bright, blue sky in the background. So any dark object that has a bright background is subject to purple fringing. I had this problem even when I was a film photographer. I once owned a Nikon 8008s that I used my Nikon telephoto lenses on. Now this camera had a program setting of Pd. The d is for dual which means it changes the configuration of the lenses when going beyond 135mm. Essentially my telephoto lens becomes a different lens with this setting. I know that CA (Chromatic Ab.,) is still a problem child and there are only a few ways to handle it or prevent it. Thanks again for your input.
Poka, Spasibo. ))

Regarding Chromatic Ab during photohunt to birds on a bright background I can say, that catadioptric (Maksutov) lens is looking interesting because they dont have this kind of aberrations at all. I am planning to buy ZM-5SA 8/500 to try this.
