Here to interact. Keen on photography... B&W captures in urban and rural environments. In the past I have dabbled with macro.

I’m too stubborn to read the article :)

Is this a nice way of saying hard-headed?

I seem to recall seeing old B&W (circus or carnival) footage of Capuchins atop ponies trotting circles in a small ring

What is break even on a barrel of Permian crude these days, $45?

Managed to dig up the lens and it wasn't an Ektar (I must have traded it) but rather a B&L Baltar 50mm f/2.3. Spiral on the Helicoid is similar but not the same. Sorry to have bothered you...

You may be right. I think the lens I have is a "cinema" Ektar but I could never confirm it. What I really want to know is the flange to focal distance so I can try to rig up a 3d adapter print to give it a whirl on a mirrorless camera..

I'll pull it out tomorrow, as I recall it was 35 or 50mm. It's just the lens housing assembly with iris and focusing helicoid. I searched for info on it but couldn't find anything specific online. This is the closest I've seen to it - specifically the helicoid groove.

I have an old Ektar. The spiral groove on the interior of the barrel displayed is similar to the one I have. Mine is wider but same aperture. I never could find an adapter to put it on a mirrorless camera. I need to dig it out and see if I can find a 3D adapter print for it.

Interesting concept in a digital image age. Looks like a hoot to shoot but I shudder to think what film would cost these days. I'd really like to see a compact camera like this with an updated Kodak CCD sensor, ~ 16mp would be fine.

Is that an exposure meter atop the camera? If so details please...

RF 35mm 1.8 is a great lens. Sharp corner-to-corner ~f/4. No hot spots on NIR. It balances well on FF or crop. RF 24mm f1/.8 macro is equally good if you want greater FOV. Both are excellent street lenses at moderate size.

I only made it to the E-30 before I jumped to Canon for the MP-E 65. Like you, the "weakness" (limitation) of the camera forced me to learn why and improved my understanding of digital photography.
