Lens Evaluation Photos

[nickles]

I recently posted a gallery of test shots for various 35mm lenses that I've evaluated. Note this is pretty boring gallery unless you are interested in lenses. The lenses are those that I adapt to my Canon 300d Rebel. There is an explaination of the testing in the gallery description. The Flektogon 35/2.4 that was used to create "A Walk in the Garden" slideshow is amongst the evaluated lenses. The gallery is located here:

I created this gallery for a photographic forum that I participate in, but thought some in this forum might be interested.

Not at all boring, and a very interesting list of lenses for your Canon digRebel. I have the same camera but only one L lens, the 17- 40mm wide angle which broke the bank for this year. Are the screw type adapters still available that will fit the Canon mount? I'll have to watch eBay more as well! Thanks for your input.

Hi bharkins:

I normally purchas an M42 to EOS adapter for each M42 lense I plan to use very much. That way it's ready to put on the camera without messing around. The ones I've been using cost about $15 after shipping. I've bought them all from this guy who sells them pretty regularly on Ebay. I suspect he makes them in his backyard shop:

Thanks for info. I checked the seller, looks like he has these available frequently. I'll try one, then start lookiing for the appropriate lens. I see there are others available from China also.
