You mean have 'likes' as a simple numerical counter without the liker being identified.

We have one of those junctions nearby that looks like someone has thrown a bag of traffic light seeds everywhere. It's very busy and there are always rows and rows of red brake lights to be seen. It looked like a good place to see what might happen if you maximised the soap bubble effect of a Trioplan. It was a horrible, grey winter day which helped the effect -- well, I thought it did, anyway.

These are from a K1 with a 105mm f4.5 Trioplan (ex folding camera shutter and lens, modified to M42 by me).
Your opinions are most welcome.

I love the consistent presentation of these. Tack sharp, simple and very effective.

These are crops from one of the original still life frames. They show all too well how detailed the image is from a Schneider Radionar 105mm lens on a K1 ....

As with the original (see the Gallery) these are worth looking at large sized.

Beautiful, carefully considered photos and a fascinating narrative to link them together.

While the slider is in full view on the DS it is necessary to slide the eyecup up and off the istD in order to access it. Don't forget that there are extra eyepieces available (sometimes - e.g. on ebay) to correct the view even more -- I have one on my K5.

Mine are anything but dead and when I am? Will I care?

As you say, make the most of what you have. NOW.
