It's still got a phone in it, but it doesn't look like it's been used for a while. Ilford XP2.

Nice in B&W. I bet it would look good in colour too on a drizzly or misty day.

That's a wild lens, have you tried any portraits with it?

A couple more with Ilford XP2. The "Pimple" on Tavistock golf course, and the ruins of Holy Trinity church in Buckfastleigh.

If you mean the soft focus lens then yes. They were mostly intended for portrait work, but I use mine for everything from flowers to landscapes.

The only issue with these soft lenses, is the degree of softness you choose. You really need to take a few shots with varying degrees of softness and see which you like best. You also need to use a good slow fine grain speed film as well, or you may be over the max shutter speed for some cameras. (Grainy film will produce a hot mess)

I shot a roll of Ektachrome 100 using my KX, M50.1,7 and a Pentax stereo adaptor. I now need to mount the roll so I can see which ones worked best. Here are some examples.
