Zeiss’s Flektogon, known as a masterpiece, is also popular and reliable. It is a lens that Nakayama also loves, and it seems that it beats the taste that exudes as it goes through town shots.

About lens

Flektogon Silver 35mm F2.8

An old-fashioned depiction of a sense of well-being, a blurry, strong contrast, and a sense of saturation for highlights.
And cospa is also the highest and popular as it is reasonable compared to modern lenses, so it might be a natural conclusion.

Today’s agenda

– How different is the slightly old Silver tube from the late type such as Zebra pattern?
– We walk around the bar area of Nakano

Bokeh, depiction around the frame, color

There was some cleaning scratches on the lens, but it is clear because I took it out after cleaning.

The white half circle in the upper right is completely a ghost.
Since the shooting on this day was a sunny evening, the silver case seems to be susceptible to light, but it was also a fun sun.

After all I feel the atmosphere similar to Flektogon of Zebra pattern.
Even though the appearance is different, the lens configuration and the lens barrel part of the lens are exactly the same as Zebra pattern, so it is natural.
By the way, helicoid and aperture mechanism were completely different.

There is a sense of saturation of the blur for the age of the age, so is the silver lens tube stronger?

However, I think that the sharp and blur at near focus are the same as Zebra pattern.

Hmm, just like a Showa movie.
This blur is really fun and I only shoot with an open aperture.

The feeling of being slightly sweetened at this level may be a characteristic of this silver case.
It is not a lens of the age that aims at sharpness.

The retro atmosphere of the store and the sweet focus of this sense of distance are perfect.
Although the angle of view is different, it may be sensibly similar to Jupiter-8.

Then, although the shortest photography distance is written in index with 33cm ,. In fact, because the focus helicoid turns more than that, I think that you can approach up to about 20 cm like the latter one.

Resolution, sharpness, aberrations

Even near the aperture, it is very easy to shoot with a sharp depiction that is relatively sharp.

However, there is a sense that when the distance is left with the aperture open, the focus is suddenly blurred.
I like this depiction very much, but if you take a photo like a memorial photo, it is likely to be out of foucs if you are not careful.

It is sharp if you feel this distance.
If you shoot close at the open aperture, it will be a lot of film taste and fun coupled with the vignette.

Will it come fluffy when you leave a couple of meters?
It may be due to the condition of the lens, but I think it is the taste of the early 1960s.

When sunlight comes in, the color is improved at a stretch, or the grains come out, or it comes to be fluffy.
I think as the image of the silver tube that light is easy to rotate.

At first glance it is difficult to understand the focus plane.
I think I focused on the third row of bicycles, but it is difficult to understand.

I see, I feel somehow understood that the part where the light strikes is likely to be blurred even on the focus plane.
If there is a strong light source, the focal plane is likely to be saturated.

This is where the saddle of the bicycle on which the sun shines is in focus, and maybe it is easy to blur where the light strikes.

If it is near this, it is still quite sharp.
Where there is no direct light, it seems to be relatively stable focus.
