Sony Nex-5N

Sony Nex-5N

We are experiencing Autumn weather in December this year. The weather is really playing up these days. Just can't plan ahead and the weather people don't seem to be having a good time with their prognosis either. I was just looking out the window as the light was fading and I saw these clouds coming over moving quite fast. I just ran for the nearest camera and it happened to have the Canon FDn 35 f2 on it.
Since I took this picture I've tested the lens more thoroughly and have come to the conclusion that there are sharper lenses out there (or I picked up a bad copy). Stop it down to around f8 and it's sharp, but that isn't what I bought an F2 lens for. I want to use it at f2, but if it isn't sharp at that aperture then what's the point right?
BTW, this was taken at aroung f5.6.

Tokina FD 24 f2.8 VI

This is the last one for the Tokina in the series. I'm quite please with the images it produces (and for the price). There's still some Olympus 50 f1.8 to come, followed by some Pentax manual focus lenses.

Colours aren't too bad in this one.
Where you have to watch with these manual lenses is when you have the sun in the viewer or very near to it.
That will kill the contrast for you.
