My Lens is Bigger than Your Lens

[Kaido]

Buddy gave me a box of his old Nikkor lenses. I picked up a fleabay adapter for around twelve bucks and it works great! Lens in the picture is a 4.5 90-230mm Vivitar. I just wanted to show off

I bought one of those 90-230 Vivitars on the bay the other day, just waiting for it to arrive

Will it fit your RED?

Yup...via the $500 Canon adapter plate :hmm:

The RED Canon adapter lets you do autofocus too, but my $12 fleabay adapter doesn't

It's surprisingly sharp so far...I'm impressed for having it on an adapter. Can't wait for the weekend to go out and play with it :awe:

Very difficult handheld - no IS and achieving perfect focus is really hard. Can't wait to mess around with this on a tripod - love the bokeh!!

1200mm ftw?

) Yeah, the winner is 996GT2. I think this cut anyone's attempt of showing off.

Gets a lot of digital grain, especially when you sharpen. Handheld is difficult but I like how the old lenses make the image look!

 

[Kelvrick]

Lenses you actually own? I wish I had the Sigma 120-300 2.8, but I'll probably never take it anywhere.

Instead, I just have the Sigma 100-300 F4. Maybe thats why people call it the stalker lens when they see it.

 

[angry hampster]

Kelvrick, I've heard that's a really fantastic lens. What do you think of it?
