Royal Purple Leaf

Shot using a Mansfield Mantinar 40mm f2.8 @ f4

It you closely, you'll notice the odd, cross-hatched bokeh. That is because of the lens has only 4 blades. And that causes the bokeh to look square. The funny part is that this tiny lens is super sharp for being made in 1961 and on a camera that cost less than $100.

This lens is a harvested lens off of a Mansfield Mantinar Eye-Tronic Rangerfinder camera and adapted to a M42 mount. The donor camera was in rough shape and not working.
