Cadmium Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Wow, although I am a huge fan of the 8mm fisheye... I am very attracted to the second shot, very nice. Link to comment
Andy Perrin Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Yeah, I like number 2 more here, in fact. Link to comment
bobfriedman Posted July 5, 2018 Author Share Posted July 5, 2018 i personally feel that the f/22 to get the starburst softened the shot and took away from its brilliance.. i like #2 as well Link to comment

Cadmium Posted July 5, 2018 Share Posted July 5, 2018 Now that one is my favorite. 8mm rocks again! Link to comment
Andrea B. Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Agreed! That 8mm does lend itself to good compositions like the tree diagonal. That is just a magical little scene there. I might have to look for one of these.... Link to comment
bobfriedman Posted July 6, 2018 Author Share Posted July 6, 2018 and if Steve can get the filter carousel to work (no small task - and impressive to date).,,, i now want a BG-3 oops BG3 filter there. Link to comment
Andrea B. Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 Dash it all, those pesky dashes! Yes, a filter carousel would be a highly desireable thing for any lens. I've been trying to figure out if I could get someone to build one for the UV-Nikkor. Link to comment
bobfriedman Posted July 6, 2018 Author Share Posted July 6, 2018 Yes, a filter carousel would be a highly desireable thing for any lens. I've been trying to figure out if I could get someone to build one for the UV-Nikkor. the 8mm Ai Fisheye comes with a built-in filter carousel.. Steve disassembled it and replaced the filters, unfortunately he has some difficulty finishing the task... i am waiting patiently. Link to comment
Cadmium Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 I have no plans to complete my 8mm carousel conversion right now, maybe someday...? As far as filter carousels to add on other lenses, there are various things like that, most I have seen are for telescopes, but could probably be adapted for camera lenses.Another quick change method are the magnetic filter adapters.
