Here's all of my Minolta gear together, minus the 2 flashes that I have. My next buy will probably be the beercan 70-210mm f/4 lens, but for now the 135mm on an adapter mount works well, and I have the 2x converter it I need more reach.
So after putting all the notes in, I realized that this pic is kinda small, so I'll probably make a larger one later.
Taken with 180mm equiv. approximate f/4 aperture non-stabalized handheld, with the help of peaking function. Rather difficult to get a sharp macro in low light and 1/13 shutter.
Not a cell phone shot!
Arena Cove, City of Point Arena, Mendocino County, California
Last Saturday May 27, 2017 at about 8PM on Memorial Day weekend I was at Arena Cove taking pictures using manual focus lenses and this couple on vacation from San Francisco asked me to take a picture of them with their cell phone. Since I had what is one of my best portrait lenses on my D750 I told them I would take the photo with my camera instead. Once I took the photos I connected my D750 to my iPhone 6S+ and "texted" the photos to them. They were very happy with the photos I took of them.
Of the photos I took that day, this is the one I like the best.

I seem to remember taking this with an Olympus OM1 loaded with Ilford XP2.
Another set of pictures I found in a folder, and I have no idea why they are there - I've long forgotten, and there's no common theme or time. Some of these images are 20 years old.
I have little idea of which camera or lens, but I would say they are all taken with a classic manual focus lens on a digital camera of some sort.

Nikon D4 @ 900 iso with 50mm f/1.8 series E manual focus lens. Shot monochrome + yellow filter in camera. Unedited.
I wanted to show the lenses I use on my Sony bodies. All perform amazing and are manual focus and manual aperture lenses.
Manual focus, at night, on moving targets. Not too shabby, lol!

Wandering around the outside of the International Forum in Yurakucho, killing time before a meeting at the press club. The momiji trees there were looking cool and I got sucked into looking straight up through them, the layers of branches overlapping. Then I noticed the way the trees were split by the line of the building. That's what you see here; trees with the background of the edge of the building on one side, trees with the sky and more trees as the background on the other. Framing the whole thing with the dividing-line of the building at the very centre made for a pseudo-diptych look, like two individual frames montaged together.

ODC: Having fun hunting a fast moving cat with manual focus:) It was really hard and I cannot believe I got this shot through the grass. So happy about it:)
The only real reason I took this photo was due to walking past the squirrel multiple days in a row. I had the idea of taking more photos of it as it decayed, but I got lazy and realized it would be sort of hard to frame it exactly right each time.
Nikon FE with Konica Minolta DNG 200 negative film and an assortment of manual focus lenses and accessories. I shot with the 24 f2.8, the 50 f1.4 and the 200mm f4. I used the BR-2 reversing ring and some closeup lenses. I also used the 2x teleconverter. I have made no attempt to keep track of which combination was used with each shot.
The subject was on a (not always visible) black velvet background. Lighting was with a close softboxed SB600 and a distant grided SB26 at full zoom.
Man! I'm missing my Nikon scanner. These are scanned with my very own Konica Minolta DiMage Dual Scan IV film scanner. As regards resolution it is quite good. As regards colour and subtlety of tone it's not bad (but not as good as the Coolscan). As regards ICE -- well, that's where it all breaks down. It has no ICE. This means that all dust and scratches are fully visible. I only recently found a way to get my locally processed film (which comes back very grungey) clean enough for scanning but it is labour intensive and still needs work on the scan afterwards. Sigh.
The other day I was playing with my vintage Canon FDn 80-200mm F4 lens and was trying to capture this dragonfly in flight. I would say the hit rate was pretty pathetic. However, out of the 10+ shots I have taken, this one is the sharpest. So it 's not impossible at all. It just needs a little practice.
