Hard to find lens, fairly rare. Made for Robot cameras, 24x24 or 18x24 tops. Still, with a nice vignette and lots of field curvature it covers the FF sensor in a charming way. Meyer Görlitz Robot Primotar 1:3.5 F=3cm (approximately 1936).

Day 30 hike with the SMC Pentax 30mm F2.8 on the A7RIV. I didn't record the aperture used.

A big day 35 with a 16mm projection Meyer from the 30s, one MC and one MD Minolta and one Minolta with AF.
Lets start with Hugo Meyer & Co. Görlitz Kinon III f=3.5 cm. I cut the barrel as the highly recessed front element was suffering from vignetting (the difference in field of view between 16mm film and APSC is just too much). A great deal of field curvature outside the area of intended use leads to swirlyness. 35.1: Laurentius (field curvature) ![]() 35.2: Luma (enough swirl?) ![]() 35.3: Le Centaure ![]() 35.4: Keep moving forward ![]() 35.5: X marks the spot ![]() 35.6: A basket case ![]() |

Minolta MC W.Rokkor-HH 1:1.8 f=35mm. It weighs a ton. The mind boggles why Minolta dropped this wonderful design, I love it. Possibly dropped because they came up with the AF 35/1.4 and the AF 35/2 was the cheap option. One day I'll buy a 35/1.4, I fear.

Minolta Shift CA 35MM 1:2.8. It was the same case as the Minolta RF250. You know it exists, you want it but not enough to go digging in your deepest pockets. Until opportunity presents itself. No that is not right, until you let opportunity present itself. It is a disease. I've been told that all men suffer from some sort of hoarding syndrome, be it stamps or comics or.... Well, better be lenses.
Back to the lens. I am mesmerized by the whole concept of shift lenses. The mechanics of it is so great. Keep the camera level and shift until composition is made. Focus, set aperture to f/8, snap. The opposite of point and shoot. 35.16: Rotterdam, The White House ![]() 35.17: Words ![]() 35.18: Blaaktoren from the cube-houses ![]() 35.19: Stayokay ![]() Maximum shift: 35.20: Rotterdam, Wijnhaven ![]() As a panorama of three, easy stitching: 35.21: Rotterdam, Wijnhaven ![]() 35.22: Rotterdam, The Old Harbor ![]() |

And last if not least of this binge Sunday. The Minolta AF 35mm 1:2. I bought it many years ago when I was not yet a lens hoarder and was still using analog cameras. With the 50mm 1:1.7 they were my collection of primes.

Nice series from all lenses Paul, plenty of swirl with the first and that shift lens seems to work very well. I'm still looking to add the 35 mm OM Zuiko shift to my OM collection, but haven't found one yet, these photos tell me I really need one

Today we start a new week, with new chances. Week 6 with focal length from 37 to 43 mm. 3 lenses from me, one 37 and two 40's. I think I'll be able to use them all, weather forecast looks good the whole week.

Shift addiction! Now I know that Laowa has issued a 20 mm shift lens in FE mount (a much more practical lens than the 12 mm with 1.4X teleconverter/shift adapter, 17 mm is soooooo wide, the lens is soooo heavy) I'm sold! The Mino 35/2 is indeed one of the real Minolta gems. |
