My 1st roll with the CV 25/4

Nearsighted · 02-13-2006

Hi, I just picked up this lens here on RFF and promised a few sample photos when I got some results back. I was a t a high school hockey game last week and these pictures are with my nose up against the glass if you will. I was using a slow shutter speed (1/15th or1/30th) and shooting at f-8 with Kodak UC 400 film. The lighting indoors at these events isn't the best so I thought I'd go for the motion effect. Anyway, here's a few shots.

you picked up some nice action in those.. I really like the first shot.. and talk about sharp images.. I can only imagine you're happy with the purchase

Brett, I think that sharply blurred would be a good definition. I've never tryed shooting up close and through the glass like this. The reflections and difracted light is kind of cool. This isn't a very good example of what the lens is capable of and these pictures were for the fun of it.

I must say I've never seen my CV 25 as a sports/action lens. But all I can say is 'wow'. Good pictures, especially the first one!
