I've been a little quiet lately, immersed in my vintage lens project. Taken with a Meyer-Optik Görlitz Oreston 50mm f1.8 (c.1967). The 33cm MFD allows for near macro opportunities with wonderful painterly bokeh.

Revisiting one of my favourite digital images. Captured on my original Sony a6000 and 16-70mm F4 ZA OSS in 2015. No wonder I became a Sony shooter :)

My search continues for a refined set of lenses suited to the work I'm enjoying producing with vintage lenses. These 5 have found a place in my core collection and have been chosen for the unique characterstics that they bring to a variety of shooting situations. More in the alt text.
One lens is missing from this lineup and I'm currently assessing another that may replace one of these in the core set of 6 lenses I'm looking to settle on. More to follow... From Left to Right: Revue Auto Revuenon 55mm f1.7 Konica Hexanon AR 50mm f/1.4 (8-blade) Carl Zeiss Jena Pancolar 50mm f/2 Pentacon 50mm f/1.8 Konica Hexanon AR 28mm f/3.5

A while ago now I was bitten by the vintage lens bug and the creative possibilities that they provide on film and digital cameras. Below are 3 lenses I've been using on my Sony cameras with an m42 adapter. I hope you'll indulge me as I share a variety of these images. Lens details in the alt text.
These vintage lenses are at the heart of a project I'm working on this year called '50 with a Vintage'. Primarily they are being used on my Sony cameras to explore their creative qualities. From left to right: * Meyer-Optik Görlitz Oreston 50mm f1.8 - the soap bubble bokeh is less pronounced on this lens but its bokeh has a lovely painterly feel. * Pentagon Multi-Coated Auto 50mm f1.8 - a soap bubble delight but I'm also capturing some lovely macro images when paired with the large Sony sensor. * Helios 44-2 F2.8 58mm with the front element reversed. Known for its swirly bokeh the reversed form brings a whole range of opportunities with the images distorting in unusual directions.
