たしか、そうーだね・・・
This is a new Cosina Voigtlander 40mm 1.4 M mount lens mounted on my MP. Actually, I got it used, but it came with the original warranty which states that the original owner purchased it in January. January was only a few weeks ago. As you can guess, the lens is in like-new, dare I say cool-Mint condition. Refreshing!
40mm is a focal length that I want to keep working with, keep trying to figure out. This purchase was spurned in part by shooting with my crappy little 2mp camera that has a lens that is NOT 28mm,, which forced me to shoot differently that usual, and also from looking at lots of random and old snapshots. Back in the day average folks who wanted to take average photographs shot with little rangefinders with 40mm fast lenses. However by my standards (steadfast, stubborn, and prone to collapse on a whim) their average photographs are ABOVE average- I would call them fantastic.
Can I harness the power of the Normal and Natural 40mm focal length? Let’s find out.
On an arty- designy note, the CV 40mm lens is real pretty. It honestly sparkles in the light, or in this case, with a flash when being shot under a table in a sushi shop near Senshu University.
