And, why own this lens if you don't try it wide open :D...

I like these ... dreamy lens it is

Love the shot in the kitchen with the flames

funny enough my sister took my nieces down to Disney about 2 weeks ago and they received a portrait from that same "Belle" or at least I think thats belle

Looks great, especially that last shot, spot on focus and beutiful framing.

It looks like you got the focus right-on. If you documented the process, a thread on the conversion would be interesting.

Pete - yes that is Belle - just before my daughter had her portrait made with her. The flames shot is slightly off focus - he kept moving to avoid the fire! (His name tag is nice and sharp at 100%, though :))

Brian - I first tested the lens on a 7s to ensure that focus was spot on and then the conversion was very straightforward, but tricky.

As I thought, if you have a properly calibrated lens, all that needs to be done is simply align and attach an LTM adapter.

I'll try to describe the steps I took later.

Is that the Coral Reef Grill (at least that is what it used to be called)? It wasn't open the last time I was at EPCOT (they were still converting The Living Seas from something cool to what it is now).

It is a restaurant on the Boardwalk - Flying Fish....
