Only if you clone out the contrail
I don't know, I only put it up an hour and a half ago, and it's got an "I think this is Art! AWARD" already!!

It would have been interesting to read the comments if it had been posted in the "Your photo's" section on here.....

I really like the penultimate one. Very strong portrait.

I like the last two. The last one looks like something from Dr Who! However, the first and last pics look a bit plasticky, and not quite in focus. Perhaps too much noise reduction?

Another masterclass in landscapes, the 3rd and the last ones are the pick for me but they are all excellent.

Mine has never been level, it's about 3 bars out and has been since I got it. I used to use the level on the K7 all the time, but I have not been able to use it on the K5 at all. Living in Doha it's not practical to send it back, unfortunately; I have been hoping for a firmware upgrade that allows you to adjust it.

I have had four accepted that I submitted last week. Three that were there before they shut down are still pending. Ten previously accepted pics have disappeared again. Meanwhile I have also seen some pictures twice while voting.

Thanks John! it was the use for IR photography that got me interested. Sounds like it might be out of my budget range though! Seems like a very interesting lens nonetheless. I didn't realize the elements were made from quartz.

I just read an interesting article about this lens, and was wondering if anyone had one? It's an M42 mount lens, made between 1968-1975.I can't find any for sale anywehere, I quite fancy one but have no idea how much they cost. Does anyone have any more info on this lens, or any idea where I could find one?
