Well first try with the 100mm. Not much light as you can see, was a bit dark outside and just one light on my desk, turned out to be a nice shot anyhow!
Off course CaptureNX has seen this one, levels needed a bit of straightening and B&W conversion.
Shot info: iso 200 - f2.8 - 1/100 - 100mm.

Manual Focus again: Nikon E Series 100mm f2.8.

Addicted as i have become to Manual Focus lenses this week the third arrived.
The Panagor was nice, The Vivitar a surprise. This one, a Nikon E series 100mm f2.8 is a winner.
Got it on a nice deal, tested a bit and so far i am very happy with it.
Doing my homework i will add 2 links to information about this lens.

Well, seems this is a nice lens indeed.
Will post a first edited photo in next blog message.

For now, Bye Bye/

Orchid 2

Following the other blog from today a black and white form the orchid series.
Shot info: iso 200 - f8 - 1/125 - 150mm

The manual focus lenses really are a learnig curve, but i like working with them. It gives full control at what i want to do. Still i think metering is a plus, maybe one day a d300 or d700 or......
Besides hunting @ marktplaats is fun also.

For now till next entry!
Cheers Peter.

Orchid

I really love the Vivitar. I made a serie at my love's house. There is a growing orchid in the window where it catches it's sunlight. Above you can see an edit in color.
