With ISO 50 film you inevitably find yourself shooting with the diaphragm rather wide open and therefore a limited DoF, which can lead to strange effects, such as here: distinctive bubble bokeh.

 

Silbersalz35 is a German startup that offers Kodak cine film re-packaged in standard 35 mm film cartridges plus development and high resolution scans. Their film is sold in packs of four cartridges.

 

I tried them once last winter, at the time with four rolls of their 500T tungsten balanced high ISO film.

 

This time I ordered a pack of four different rolls. This is the ISO 50 daylight balanced fine grain fim. Silbersalz 35 now comes in DX coded cartridges. The DX code would automatically set an overexposure by one stop, but I overrode that and exposed it at ISO 50.

 

I used the Zeiss Ikon Contarex with a Planar 50 lens for this roll.

 

I have created a Flickr group for photos shot with the Zeiss Ikon Contarex.

The sun was just right to help be get these Bokeh balls from the 44-3. I used lightroom to enhance the surreal nature of the photo. Mounted on Olympus m5.3.

Meyer Optik Gorlitz Trioplan f/2.8 100mm

I know this is wrong in so many ways...noisy, lacking sharpness and obviously way off the mark focus wise but sometimes I think sod it...I love the rainbow effect of the light and the crazy Trioplan bokeh! What the heck ;-))

I really can't get enough of the bokeh with this lens.

With modern lenses I shoot with the subject in mind. but with my old lenses I shoot with the background in mind which sometimes isnt cool because the subject might be mundane like this mango, but the way the sparkly background bits shine almost like liquid light is hypnotizing and I cant help it. this is the minimum focusing distance of the Mir 37mm which is a shame because its not best for close up flowers. this lens was released in 1954 and at the 1958 Brussels worlds fair received the "Grand Prix" award which has ever since been stamped on its barrel. if I had shot this with a modern lens the background would have been smoother and creamier but also more clinical and generic. If I had shot a brick wall wide open like this the edges would be way too soft so this centered subject style is perfect for these lenses.

I just completed my most detailed review of this Soviet Mir 37mm lens which took 3 mos to compile all the footage. if youre interested youre welcome to behold it here on my YT channel.

Or at least als close to the Trioplan 100 as I will get. DIY Lens made of the ugly twin of the Trioplan - The Meyer Optik Görlitz Diaplan 100/2.8 fixed aperture projection lens. It is said to have the same optical formula and it looks like the typical Triolan bokeh. But there might be some more differences. I'll post photo of the lens later on (still need to work some things out gut total cost are well below 50€ for this one - fungus included ;)

unfortunately (?) a windy day when I was seeking spring blossoms to capture for the weekly challenge of #SmileOnSaturday - April 14th, 2018: #SpringFlower2017/2018

 

... but windy days have their own / special appeal : ))

 

Happy Smile on Saturday!

I am currently at a conference, so I will be browsing in the evening

... schlechte Voraussetzungen für Blütenfotos, dachte ich an diesem windigen Tag, an dem ich Fotos für die Gruppe Smile on Saturday machen wollte - oder doch nicht?

 

... es stellte sich heraus: windige Tage haben ihren ganz eigenen Reiz : ))

Carl Zeiss Ultron 1.8/50 M42 with adapter

 

I certainly did not expect the bokeh obtained with the Carl Zeiss Ultron to look like this when there are multiple highlights in the background! It's true Meyer Görlitz style! :-) But I assure you this was not shot with a Trioplan.

A healthy patch of fungi is living on old mossy stump in our local forest. The morning fog provided enough water in the surroundings to play around with the bubble Bokeh effect of my Trioplan lens.

 

Shot with my Meyer Optik Görlitz Trioplan 50/2.9 V Lens from the 1950ies in Altix mount with extension tubes on a macro focusing rail. I modified it to fit a modern Nikon FX body. The lens is in good shape and depending on the subject of the photo mostly free of fungus ;)

I didn't like this composition first but after some processing I kind of like this mess. There is a little bit of everything in here. Bright against dark, dark against bright, bubble bokeh, sunflares. Taken on a particular messy part of the shoreline. Pentacon 50mm f1.8 wide open and shot "blind".
