DA*50-135mm. I've been without mine for a while and I really miss it. Not much use for 'action' but beautiful for anything else.

'Coloured in' makes it sound as if they were hand-tinted which they are not. They are photochroms (aka photochromes, fotochroms) and 'phostints' where the negative is transferred to lith stone via a photographic process and then multiple stones used to apply the different colours. They are not true colour photographs, therefore, but a type of coloured printing process. It was largely used for picture postcards.

Cheers, Kris.

I love the sea in the first image and the skies in the second... go figure. Both lovely images though, I'd be pleased with either.

BTW I think the horizon dips a minute amount to the left. Sorry, I'm a bit anal about horizons...

Happy New Year, K.

Some nice lenses but it isn't a good time of year for it. I also have the impression that after a few years of high prices for manual lenses the current market is very slow and prices are dropping.

Good luck with the sale.

I used an ME Super for so many years it became automatic... so automatic I'd have to go use one again to work out what I did. From memory, I either looked for something in the right plane that I could use the split screen on, or I ignored the middle stuff altogether and used the plain ground glass. The viewfinder is so big and bright it was never really a problem unlike trying to manually focus modern dSLRs which always feels like one is peering down the wrong end of a telescope...

6Mapping the archaeology using magnetometry, so it was fun. See here.

3 and 5 are my favourites too. Funny to see somewhere so familiar, I was working in the Park one or two days a week all last year.

Thank heavens for that...

Enjoy the lens! K.

I'm not a train person but that is a gorgeous photo. The frost and the light really make it. K.
