Default Old lenses!

Rummaging through my dad's old photography gear, I found this little lens, 35-80 f4-5.6D...

In the midst of all of the newer lenses, I have to say that this lens comes in a tiny package, but gives them a run for the money!









These are all SOOC with in-camera sharpening (6) applied on a D800.


Post up your old, old lenses!

sharp and slow, sometimes thats the way to go I would post some of mine but many are very fragile and the young uns here would not appreciate em anyhow.....but there is a particular old lens i good luck finding one though.

The canon 35-135 f3.5-4.5 its rare and a real gem. It was phased out in 1989 its the first one listed in this link.

I thought when you said old, you meant 'old'

Old lenses have their place. I've had my eye on the nikkor 85mm 1.4 for the longest time. I doubt I'll ever buy it, but I could dream.
