Heal-all, with the Bokina at f/8, available light (tripod). This is pretty close to minimum focus distance without the 1:1 adapter, hence not quite 1:2. Cropped a bit.

Lovely Bokeh from the Bokina!

Hello All,
Just signing up, thanks for the welcome on the "Scored A Bokina" thread.
Mine's a Vivitar f/2.5 VMC 90mm w/1:1 extender, # 37716269 in PK mount.
Took an early-AM walk Sunday, just as the sprinklers were coming on. Here's a few "wet" shots, hand held, wide-open or maybe f/4.0, no extender.
It's a heavy lens and very fussy to focus. I'm now using the K10D since it has a KatzEye screen. Gotta get one for the K-7, also.
I'm proud to be a member of such an elite group!
Ron

Yes. Besides, once I attach the 1.7x AFA, it becomes an 178mm f/4 macro that is AF, that is really good.
