Had eens graag mede-fotografen hun merkwaardige, zeldzame apparatuur gezien. Student zijnde heb ik wat "onorthodoxe" apparatuur vergaard dewelke ik niet meer zou kunnen missen.
Heb het op Flickr gepost en geen tijd gehad om beschrijvingen te vertalen (mijn excuses daarvoor)
EF 100-300/5.6
Gekocht voor 50eur van een mede-BD'er. Goed budgetlenske, you love it or you hate it.
My workhorse EOS 40D with a Helios 44-2 attached. I bought this particular lens while visiting relatives in Ukraine for about €3 and I had luck, it was a very sharp exemplar.
Though 44M-6 is better at IQ (on paper at least) I like this lens preset iris control. It feels more refined than its newer brother.
The 44M-6 lens! Rather sharp entity, bought for about €2. A drop of WD-40 and its helicoid worked like new or even better (watch out with WD40, it crawls a long way and will stain your iris blades!!). This model is an example how soviet factories worked. They first produce the lens and then check them for their resolving capabilities. Low quality glass got 44M-5 model number, this one is a 44m-6 and the best got 44M-7. If anyone is bothered to know some specifics of soviet lenses, contact me =)
One of Prakticas 135mm f/2.8 kitlenses. Paid way too much for it (€10), least used of my arsenal.
Nu, wat is jullie "precious"?
P.S.: Moest er iemand geïnteresseerd zijn in goedkope Soviet lenzen, contacteer mij, heb contacten in Oekraïne
