Voïgtlander 125mm/f.25 APO-Lanthar Bookeh
Posted By: FrancisK7, 08-29-2008, 07:29 PM

After almost selling it yesterday, I knew it would be a mistake, and that my bad photos I took 6 months ago must had been my fault, not the lens. I gave it another quick spin today in very low light photog using a flower bouquet I gave my mother for her birthday.

The Bookeh is amazing...I'm glad the sale failed and I ended up deciding to keep it, forever!





I had forgotten my tripod in the studio so these are handheld Did the best I could!

This is the bouquet itself, same lens. Look at those colors. How could I ever have thought about selling it?

Thank God you came to your senses.. One of the best Macro lenses around.. If you decide to sell... they will be a bidding war... [unless you want to just sell it to me!] It is kind of like selling a vintage musle car only to realize later the mistake you made... Cheers JIMBO
