M42 Love
Share your thoughts, opinions and ask for advice what to choose! I'll begin. I'm looking for 135mm M42 with nice bokeh. Should be 2.8 and not very expensive, any recommendations?
tzachmost I need to find this one, is it usually sharp wide open? When I bought my Helios at f/2 it isn't sharp at all (but still usable)
Bartek carl zeis sonnar 135 f3.5 - awesome, crazy sharp wide open, great bokeh, but, as most m42 lens, works pretty bad when there's strong light source in the frame - it gets soapy and looses some of the contrast, so you pretty much shouldnt shoot against the sun
Kazzi @tzachmost remember that a) old lenses are rarely sharp wide-open, because b) film (analog) was much less demanding than a modern, sixteen or more megapixel sensors. I can say more if You want :)
tigg Do I remember right that you work in a camera shop?
tzachmost
I know about a), but my Helios is exceptionally blurry if compared to others 😛
Would love to talk to you in person about that, if we'll ever met!
Kazzi Bonarka welcome to, nananananana
tzachmost Bonarka is about hour by tram from me, so I'd need to take Uber, after my finals - for sure!
Kazzi Yes, I do. For over five years
Kazzi Priv me on fb (same nickname, fb.com/kazziz)... Or we'll meet next Saturday 18:00/Sunday 12:00
tigg Oh good ..... best 'weather sealed' wide angle for olympus m 4/3? Ian Prince loves the 7-14mm pro but oh so expensive!
Kazzi and it's the only one wide-angle weather sealed lens for m4/3 for now. PanaLeica 8-18 2.8-4 is coming, was pre-announced at photokina... but it will arrive late 2017.
tigg Thank you. I imagine that it will bear the same hefty price tag! I really want to use it for star trails and at the moment it is often -3 C at least, lens coming in with frost on, so I think I should put my money into a weather sealed one don't you? At some point in time .....
Wojciech Laskowski What adapters do you use? Blades on indefinitely?
tzachmost I have one with focus confirmation, but had to destroy this small chip to use lenses. Now it's simple, aluminium adapter, just screw lens and it's ready to go!
Wojciech Laskowski Jak to zrobileÅ›
tzachmost Zwykły adapter, na allegro dostępny za jakieś 20zł ;)
Wojciech Laskowski I ostrzy dalej niz 2m od obiektywu?
tzachmost Ostrzy od jakichÅ› ~70cm - Helios 44-4 50mm f2 na 700D.
Wojciech Laskowski Chodzi mi czy np czy obejmiesz cała osobe na zdjeciu od stup do glowy ostra, ja swoim moge tylko bardzo ciasne kadry robić
tzachmost Na 50mm jest z tym trochę ciężko, ale to jak z każdą inną pięćdziesiątką, chyba, że robisz zdjęcie z większej odległości. A tak to dosyć ostry jest tylko środek, na krawędziach są straty
Agnieszka Piecko ja na 500D i 600D nie mialam z Heliosem 44-m4 czy Jupiterem 37A żadnych problemów, w Nikonie jest spory problem bo tam z tego co wiem jeśli chce się mieć pełen zakres to potrzebna jest jakaś soczewka, w każdym razie polecam!
Agnieszka Piecko Pod Nikonem?:) to chodzi o odwracanie soczewki tak? Niestety nie każdy ma zmysł majsterkowicza :p
