That's one of the more unusual ingredients I've heard of. I've seen it done with bleach or coffee etc. I may have to try that with some of my old film, just to see.

Anyone reading this post own, or, has owned this lens? I use it for travel and portraits and
do not have any issues with the lens. I accept it as a "kit" lens and the fact that it is slow
in order to keep it small, light and cheap. Keep in mind I only use it with a film camera.

This is a very nice shot. I agree that you should try to do a better scan. It will be worth the effort.

As you suggested, and a few others

It's pretty good for a plastic fantastic, and very light/compact as a travel companion.I used mine on both film and digital (in support of my FA 28-200mm) prior to getting a Sigma 28-70 EX 2.8 (which was big and heavy) for film, and a 16-45mm for digital. Good colours, and quite good stopped down. My copy was a bit soft at tele.
