  More images here Time to time I switch back to film. It’s more fun and the best thing about it, there is no need for Photoshop. For this time I used the Yashica 108 camera with the YASHICA 28MM F2.8 lens. The film used was Kodak T-max Tmx 100/135 b/w. So, winter time in Prague on a cloudy day.

Autumn in Prague. Picture taken with Yashica 28mm F2.8 lens. Look at the DOF and at the "swirly" bokeh. More images taken with the same lens:  http://danbordeanu.ro/?p=442

Review of Yashica ML 50mm F2

Yashica ML 50mm/2 lens at F/2, full manual focus   * The purchase - I got this lens from ebay, it is cheap :)  - It's working on my Canon camera with   this   adapter.   * What I like:  - Metal case, built to last forever, quality of the lens seems good . - Aperture ring feels smooth, I like the "click click" sound . - It's very sharp at F/2, this was a big surprise for me, because I was using the Canon EF 50mm F1.8, which is sharp maybe at F8, and is feels(and sounds) like broken mcdonald's toy. - The bokeh is very nice, interesting "spinning" effect. - Colors are saturated.   * What I don't like:  - At F/11->F/16, pictures are strange, colors shades, details are missing. - Aperture ring is too close to the body, this is a a little bit annoying, but this is by design, I have to get used to it.   Sample images - The ground level point of view Sample images - Miracle
