\nMAMIYA MEDIUM FORMAT LENSES AT JUNK PRICES<\/h3>\n

Long THE competitor of HASSELBLAD, MAMIYA was finally bought out by PHASE ONE – the manufacturer of the most expensive cameras to date.<\/p>\n

This manual MAMIYA 210mm f4 medium format lens can be purchased on eBay for under \u20ac 200. On this SONY A 6600 with its APS-C sensor, this lens becomes a 315mm f4. A gift . . .<\/p>\n

\nDIGIBACK CFV II 50C to HASSELBLAD 500<\/h3>\n

The Digital Back CFV II 50C works great with all HASSELBLAD cameras manufactured between 1947 and 2011.<\/p>\n

How easy it is is the topic of this blog.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead more\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\"Infrared\"\n\t

Infrared light is not visible to the human eye. However, it is possible to modify a camera so that it can image exactly this light spectrum.<\/p>\n

The result is surreal images with an unreal touch. Exciting!<\/p>\n

\nTHE LEICA VARIO-ELMAR-R 80-200mm f4 ZOOM<\/h3>\n

Complementing the 35-70mm f4 zoom (see below), here is the telephoto zoom lens for 80-200mm from LEICA.<\/p>\n

Another exceptional lens from the LEICA-R series. I could buy mine in April 2022 for only \u20ac 642 at eBay.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead more\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\"6\"\n\t

\nOF WHEN MANUAL FOCUS
\nIS SUPERIOR TO ANY AUTOFOCUS<\/h3>\n

With wide-angle lenses, the focus range is so deep that focusing with the hyperfocal distance often leaves more control over image composition than auto focus.<\/p>\n

The term “hyperfocal distance” sounds complicated at first, but it’s easy to explain – and even easier to use.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead more\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\"5erTEST\"\n\t

Actually, I was well positioned with my two FUJI medium format cameras – until the LEICA SL2 came along.<\/p>\n

At least one of these three cameras – whether one of the FUJI’s or the LEICA I just acquired – I would sell at the end of my test.<\/p>\n

Namely, the camera that would stay at home the most often.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead more\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\"ebay\"\n\t

February 17, 2020 \/ NOCTILUX FROM CANON?
\nWith adapter to FUJI GFX or SONY<\/h3>\n

This aspherical 50mm f1.2 FD<\/strong>-lens from CANON is the most advanced 50mm lens<\/strong> with manual focus only of all time.<\/p>\n

Even LEICA has never incorporated aspheres and floating elements into their 50mm f1.2 lenses.<\/p>\n

The specimen shown here I bought beginning of 2020 for US$ 699 at a LEICA Dealer<\/strong> in Austria. What this lens does is very impressive – independent of the price.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tRead more\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
