A digital picture with the soft rendering of an old lens; in other words, an unpretentious modern portrait.

I must say there is something magical in the color rendering of these Meyer-Optik lenses. I would love to find an uncoated pre-war Primoplan one day.

Canon 5D, Meyer-Optik Primoplan 58/1.9, M42 aluminium coated version, wide open.

Paris, métro (La Chapelle ?).

Canon 7, 50mm, Kodak Tri-X @400, Rodinal.

I am not sure whether this is with the Jupiter-3 or the Canon 50/1.4. Do some bokeh experts have an opinion ?

I do not remember exactly when I made this. I tried the Contax SLR, here with the Planar 50/1.4. The lens is remarkable indeed. The negative got quite dusty and it took me some time to clean it up reasonably.

Contax 167, Planar 50/1.4 @ around f/2 I guess. Rollei Retro 100, Rodinal.

The inevitable and necessary double exposure. After having cleaned the elements of the Atoflex' two lenses (Angénieux (!) who, being uncoated, had not suffered too much from the fungus) I shot a roll of Orwopan 100. One of the last production of the eastern style film it seems, expired in 1996 (great film).
It seems there is a strong backfocus.

Ivry-sur-Seine

Atoflex, Angénieux 75/4.5, Orwopan 100, Rodinal. Something like 4.5 to 5.6, around 1/20 to 1/30.
