Julio Fernandez Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 Another nice post, Marc, thanks! The Keppler column on through-the-lens metering versus mirror lenses is interesting; I have used a 500/8 mirror with my Pentaxes but never found this effect. Nice to see a brief review of the Minolta Himatic-7 and 9. Nikon could already afford large ads of the FT, and even of used Fs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 I've never had that problem with mirror lens metering either. But I think with the Minolta SRT that I used the most, the lower weighting due to CLC metering might keep this effect from showing up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rick_drawbridge Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 Thanks, Marc, the usual great assortment. The article on enlarging lenses brought on a bout of nostalgia..(Sigh...) Just what does one do with a bunch of fine enlarging lenses? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 With a bunch of enlarging lenses you could adapt one to bellows and have a good lens for macro work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conrad_hoffman Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 If you have a small metal lathe, you can adapt almost anything to anything else. I like one of the early (small style) Schneider short focal length enlarging lenses reverse mounted on a bellows. I doubt a commercial adapter has ever been made to do that! I know there was a Computar enlarging lens that Ctein thought was the greatest thing since sliced bread. Never stumbled across one to try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Gammill Posted October 22, 2017 Share Posted October 22, 2017 My first true macro range shots (in my college days) were when I taped an Omega 75mm f3.5 enlarging lens to a telescope adapter that via T-ring was mounted on my Minolta SRT 201. Got a nice macro shot of a bumblebee on a flower as I recall. Focus achieved by moving in until image was sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
