Photo Stroll and Lens Test covid-19: day 301 | US: GA | info | act
Giles and I returned to Rose Hill today to test a few of my latest lens acquisitions. I brought along an assortment, but used the Jupiter-8 2/50, the Zuiko 2.8/28, the Ultron 1.8/21, and the Takumar 1.8/55. I started with the Jupiter-8, as it was on the SL when I arrived. I let Giles choose his own, and I think he started with the Takumar.
Lovely colors, interesting bokeh, and a bit of low contrast. The Jupiter-8 is a nice vintage lens. Next, the Zuiko captured a few familiar images.
I also used the Zuiko to get a shot of Giles as we chatted. About it he said: it’s “the rare portrait that I don't hate.” Later, I tried to get a shot of him in action, but I was not quick enough.
