Mamiya mia

I've read that the CU in the name of this Mamiya-Sekor CU 65 mm F 5.6 lens stands for "close up", so this might actually be a regular medium format macro lens. However my specific sample came in a so-called Oscillograph - a camera to capture images of oscilloscope screens. A lot of other lenses used for this purpose are significantly faster than this one, but for some reason it's a lens I like very much.

 

As you would suspect from Mamiya it is a pretty good lens for what it was designed for: close-ups and macros, And the 65 mm focal length is quite a nice and versatile one as well.

 

As usual I invite you to take a look at the album to get an impression of what I used this lens for.
