<p>I have a whole pile of homemade lenses. Basically anytime there's a lens element lying around, like a magnifying glass for example, I'll hold...
<p>Thanks Jim and Maciek. Too bad the lens is apparently too ugly and spoils the beautiful camera body and so I'm not supposed to use it any more...
<p>I have a homemade "lens" which is just a single element mounted on a body cap:<br> <img...
<p>The M9 has a setting where it won't wind until you release the shutter (discreet mode). I set mine that way so I can muffle the camera before...
<p>{deleted double post}</p>
<p>Actually I don't mind the current ISO situation too much... it's one button and a dial-twirl away. The dedicated control I'd like to have is...
<p>I have C1, Aperture 2, Lightroom, and Capture 4 (pre-NX) available. For raw processing I use Lightroom exclusively. But for me it's primarily a...
<p>>Jonas...I know Fuji used to make 3 1/4 x 4 1/4 film packs for use in the 100 series cameras and backs!!! Did they stop making this??? I'm...
I use a 4x5 field camera to get "full-frame" polaroids. Polaroid used to make smaller pack film (type 80) which gave you a "full-frame" 7x7 on...
<p>Not that faint... I saw it right away. Would seem to be a streak from that light on the right. But others have pointed this out already...<br>...
<p>I don't think you need to make the lens element itself (as per Mike's tips)... just a something to house a cheap plastic element and mount it...
<p>Walkabout for me on FX (I have a D3, not a D700, but I assume I can still answer) is a Voigtlander Ultron 40/2. Sometimes it's too short at the...
<p>I have both, and I'd say D300, for basically the reasons people are saying.<br> To clarify a few things from Mr. Crowe's post: D300 displays...
<p>It looks like if you take the outside of the curves in the D300 viewfinder you can estimate the 8x10 crop. Like the red line I added here:</p>...
<p>Hmm... I realize other posters have already made similar points, but I'll add: looking at my cameras, I seem to have two 645 cameras that are...
<p><br />> The flange to film distance is static, regardless of whether a lens is focussed at infinity or not.<br />> It is in the design...
Hmm... low-light and available light are where I really reach for my digital cameras (not the P+S ones, of course). The RD1 I don't hesitate to...
I rarely use my M6TTL now, except to occasionally burn through remaining film. But I *do* use my Leica M glass regularly on that other digital M...
I'm not sure there is an F-mount 28/2 Ultron, just a Leica M-mount? j If there is, though, I'm interested...
Thanks! Basically got lucky with some dramatic skies that evening. As for "some lens" .... I just didn't remember what lenses I was using. It's...
