<p>Thanks Bill - the "tilt" is just exaggerated vertical perspective from the FD20mm...I'm sure your 17mm would be even more dramatic if pointed upwards.</p>

<p>Whoops, sorry, the lens for both of the above should have read FD20mm/f2.8 SSC...!</p>

<p>The above shot is South Head lighthouse; the below is a familiar bridge from an unfamiliar angle:</p><div></div>

<p>Great shots so far, everyone!<br> I didn't finished a film last month, so have dug up a couple of shots from 11 years ago in Sydney:</p> <div></div>

<p>It captures the moment, Charles! (And no matter how hard we sometimes try to be "arty", it is these kind of shots that are really meaningful for the people involved and most appreciated...) I agree that 28mm is a great focal length for party events like this; the angle of view and deep depth of field means its really quick to work with, and makes sure you don't miss important moments like these.</p>

<p>Nice one Bill - looks very cold, I hope he/she can find his/her way home OK.</p>

<p>Looking forward to your continuing stewardship of this thread through 2017, Alex.<br> Apologies that as a rather stingy film shooter, I am lagging a bit behind the seasons; two Autumn shots follow:</p><div></div>

<p>Amazing shot, Bill - shows off the 17mm angle-of-view very nicely.<br> Apparently snakes see the world in infrared, but probably can't enjoy a lot of landscape vistas from 1 inch above ground level..!</p>

<p>Really nice shot, Heinrich, great colours for a night shot, thanks for posting.<br> Great to see so many contributions taken on film this month, everyone! A Merry Christmas and Happy 2017 to all !</p>

<p>Nice one, Louis; I don't think I've seen scrub looking so moody...</p>

<p>Rick is spot on, Alex; Illusion is a fascinating shot - well spotted!<br> A couple of shots from the excellent Jindai Botanic Gardens in Tokyo:</p> <div></div>

Vivitar 28-70mm 1:3.8-4.8 Macro Focusing Canon FD lens removal.
ashbrown replied to anna_spengler's topic in Canon FD Mount
<p>Note also that "Macro Focusing" just means the lens is <em>capable </em>of macro focus, but is perfectly fine for normal photography as well. Certainly don't want to discourage you from trying other lenses, but 28-70mm is a useful focal length range for starting out in film photography, so if you're on a budget it could serve you well for a while.</p> -

<p>Great timing, Bill.<br> Like young humans these days, the "fledgling" appears to be uncomfortably larger than the parent!</p>

<p>The main point of interest is of course the bank of skylight windows, with various curtains to control the light:</p><div></div>
