My guesses, going from left to right are:
FA* 200 f/2.8
DA* 300 f/4
FA* 300 f/4.5
FA* 24 f/2
FA* 200 f/4 macro
FA* 80-200 f/2.8
A* 200 f/4 macro
FA* 600 f/4
DA* 60-250 f/4
FA* 300 f/2.8
FA* 28-70 f/2.8
FA* 400 f/5.6
FA* 85 f/1.4
F* 300 f/4.5

How did I do?

Best wishes, Kris.

I wonder if the tripod bush in the clamp is the larger size rather than the smaller size (??? 3/8 v., 1/4)? I used to have to have a little insert to fit my Manfrotto tripod head to my Unilock tripod.

The aperture system you describe is common on "preset" aperture lenses such as my Jupiter-9. The idea was that you set aperture ring to the value required then used the second ring to open the lens right up for focussing, and shut it down for taking the picture. An unintended consequence of this is that you can use the lens with the camera set in Av mode.

Try Cadw and see if they are hosting a similar event.

I have version III of the Dual Scan which is excellent for 35mm. I am looking into a flatbed though for my medium format and 5x4 images.

I like it and as Tim says, well converted.

Bokeh is not a one lens fits all sort of thing. Half the reason people play with old Russian lenses for for unusual bokeh. Sometimes it really suits the image, sometimes it looks ghastly.

Stefan, interesting graphic, thank you for posting.

I use lightroom too. I tend to create directories which are a combination of date and some clue as to what it is: e.g., "New York Easter 2010". I keep the RAW, the xml sidebar file and any PSD files created by dropping into full photoshop. JPGs created as and when needed.

K7, DA 12-24mm, FA 31, FA 43, DA* 50-135mm.

It was real hard choice between the 50-135mm and the FA77... If there was something like a DA* 18mm TS lens I'd go for that but Pentax don't appear to have released that one yet.
