al_kaplan1 Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I thought that we mostly used our Leicas BECAUSE of the high quality super sharp lanses available for them! Leitz experimented with marketing a 90mm f/2.2 soft focus Thambar back in the 1930's. They're worth a fortune now to collectors, but they never tried to come out with an updated version of what had been a poor seller after WW-II. I think that this is the wrong forum for a fuzzy-focus lens on a 'blad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Taylor Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 <i>It would've been a lot easier, not to mention cheaper, to use a Holga.</i> <p> The Plungercam isn't remotely Holga-like. It's more like a Lensbaby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Taylor Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Correction - it's <i>remotely</i> Holga-ish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derek_stanton2 Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Mark is very good. He sold all of his film cameras, though, and now gets a similar effect with Tilt/Shift lenses on the Canon 1Ds: <p> <a href="http://www.marktucker.com/r_berlinprague/source/ entrypageberlin.html">EUROPE</a> <p> and <p> <a href="http://www.marktucker.com/r_miami/source/womaninfield2.html">MIAMI</a> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jim_mcbride Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Will someone please tell me how this thread/discussion is "in the Leica/rangefinder tradition"? Are we once again back to the Anything Goes Forum? Oh well, I guess it's at least remotely connected to photography. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randy_santos Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 I think it's fantastic! Thanks for posting that. I've used Holgas quite a bit (Leica M's too) and love them but you just don't get THAT with a Holga.<div></div> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arthuryeo Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 May be we should start a new Fourm for Pictorialism. I'm sure there'll be a lot of traffic & interests for those who live in the 21st century but want to migrate to 19th century technologies. Good luck!

dumpster001 Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 thanks for the link, Ed. i think it's worthwhile to note that he clearly has a vision and knows what he's doing.. his stuff is pretty strong content wise -- both in terms of subject and the way he's handled them.. in other words, if he had made the same (most) stuff even with a straght through glass, it would still be impressive. but the dreamy layer added by the cam does add more drama and certainly takes it all a notch higher..

jim_mcbride Posted November 18, 2004 Share Posted November 18, 2004 Andrew Lee: please take note of a recent post from Tony Rowlett: Tony Rowlett ?, nov 18, 2004; 07:50 p.m. A good number of threads are being deleted lately for various reasons which means that it's time for another friendly reminder to stay on the subject of Leica Photography, hold the politics and trash talk, and be nice to each other. so here goes... 1) Please discuss Leica Photography. 2) Please avoid posting personal opinions about politics OR religion. 3) This is not an eight-grade locker-room, so please don't talk the trash. That means don't be vulgar. Don't use terms here that you wouldn't use in front of your mother. You know what I mean, and I don't want you to quibble with me on this point. Leica is a class act, and I want this forum to follow suit. KEEP IT CLASSY. 4) Please be polite. You know what I mean on this point. 5) I am here, and I'm watching things closely. So is Josh, and he's a lot more strict than I am! Now.... discuss. :-) Please pay particular attention to #1 and #3. If you don't want to follow the forum rules, why are you here spoiling it for the ones who do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
