I don't have a Meyer lens. Maybe this is the excuse I need.

A great idea and start Leo! You have put the bar pretty high though . By no means I have a similar lens collection as you do, and also just started with Meyers a couple of months ago, but this will stimulate me to develop my skills further to handle these lenses. For sure I will be posting here some Meyer pics this year. It will be fun!

Leo,

I have always loved the OOF effect created by these lenses when images have been posted here; these are no exception. I am interested in purchasing one.   Would you mind either pointing to a tutorial somewhere or provide us with a brief primer on what to look for and what kind of adapter to purchase. I am totally non-tech oriented so this may seem like very basic information but it would help me in starting the search.

Roger

P.S. Just did a quick search on eBay and used equipment with B&H and prices range from under a hundred to over a thousand U.S. dollars, thus, the need for a little guidance. For example, what lens(es) produced the above images and what should I expect to pay for a nice used one without any problems. Is this a vintage lens or newly produced, etc.? See, I know nothing!

Hi Leo,

Numbers 2 (especially) and 3 are lovely images; the lens certainly has a 'something' about how it deals with even just out of focus areas and beyond that there's a dreamy quality that I really like.

I think your images may have made more of the subject matter than we would have thought possible!

Thanks for sharing these (and continuing to share the 'study' over the next 12 months!).

Best regards, Neil.

Time for some pics!

Around Christmas I caught sight of a Geit/Ente/Flying Dustbin/Tin Snail/Dolly/Tortoise/Upside-down pram/(Lelijke) Eend/Citroën 2CV/Deux chevaux. It was in a sorry state so ideal for a photo shoot.

Yesterday I took the a7rii + Meyer Primoplan 58/1.9 and made these:

1 French abstracture


2 Condensation


3 French abstracture


4 Side mirror


all with a7rii + Meyer Primoplan 58/1.9 (1954; Exakta), wide open

more to come

I am a fan of Meyer lenses (Meyer Optik Görlitz) and I have so many of them that I think it's a good idea to start A Year with Meyer.

So this thread is for photos made with Meyer lenses, photos of Meyer lenses and talk about things Meyer. It's not my plan to make it pic-a-day, that would be too much of a good thing; and I want it to be fun, not stress!

I decided to make it a thread in Themed Views because I know there are quite a few Meyer fans on Dyxum and I would like them to join me here, the more the merrier!

No rules, just fun, for the love of Meyer!

Happy shooting!
