Snapped this sexy beast while walking around on my lunch break today. Manual focus ~ G.Zuiko 40mm 1:1.4

Nikon D80 with 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 scanner.

Shot with my Panasonic DMC-G10 and Vivitar M42 screw-mount 50mm f1.7 manual focus lens.

Practiced shooting this footage with my manual focus lens while listening to some chill acoustic tunes.

 

All the tight shots were shot with my 7artisans 55mm manual focus lens. It was quite challenging especially when trying to move and pull focus at the same time. Hence the shaky half out of focus footage in a lot of the footage in the middle of the video.

 

The wider shots were done with my regular autofocus-capable Canon EF-M 22mm.

Now.. i surprised myself with this shot as i could get this shot with Canon 18-55 without any adaptor...

 

I realized that if i move to manual focus, i am able to get VERY VERY close.. how interesting...

 

This is uncropped version... just played with shadows slider in picasa and boom!!

 

Especially uploading for friends with just the kit lens and think they cannot get decent macro shots :).. here is how you can!!

 

Recommended: Press L and F11.. it looks pretty good!

I tried to shoot in the manual focus.

Although it has taken in the auto focus usually, because it does not capture as was sometimes intended, unwillingness manual setting.

Because the digital camera generation, to match the focus manually is cumbersome in quite effort.

Looking good! Only problem is now the focus ring feels a little loose. And there are probably some fuzz on the glass I couldn't perfectly get off. If that's the case I'll have to fix it in processing, but it's better than a broken lens right?!

Live view + my still good up close eyes = better detail. See orig

Manual focus f2.8 55mm :D

Using my manual focus lens at the waterfall on Beale AFB. This is one of my favorite spots to "hide" and play with my camera. I'm surprised that not a lot of people have found this place.

Waiting for entry to Bunbury harbour.

what I like about photography is looking at the world in a different way. Light, reflections and freezing the splitsecond of time. I started one year ago. Before that there was just klick and autofocus. But discovering those old lenses was like starting to gain control over the outcome. I´m happy to use them and discover our planet in a different way. Melodramatic? Might be but I feel that glad right now.
