Yeah, schasss, polarizers in monitors with very low efficiency, not only does any polarizer cut off 50% of the light by default , but they are "special" in monitors - there is a lot of all sorts of mud for expanding the viewing angle, anti-glare, and so on. Here it is better to buy a polarizing filter, but again - -50% of the light.


So Pan already has a crazy aperture, you can donate 50% . This refers to shooting in direct sunlight, which Pan has so far carefully avoided. And remove the filter in the shade.

Gentlemen, please excuse me, but I think I will express the general opinion: the elephant is still thicker. And, most likely, longer.

Photography is a creative process, and it requires an appropriate approach. When shooting a macro, you need to think about its meaning: to convey the anatomy to the viewer, or still to defeat the composition?

So far, I haven't seen anything highly artistic. And as for the topic of this topic, the laws of the genre are as old as the world: the more expensive and better the optics, the better the pictures will turn out. Because it's not the matrix that draws, it's the lens that draws.

14.04.2016 15:55, ИНО

IMHO "more expensive" and "better" should not be merged into one pile. I have shown examples of how some Soviet lenses "draw" on a good matrix. With all due respect, the quality of the details you have ironed in this topic, in terms of distinguishability, to put it mildly, is somewhat short. I'm talking about the "anatomical component", but as for the artistic one, it's obviously not given to me to understand this. Although how can there be any artistry in a moth on a pin? There, in my opinion, only "antomy" is needed.

I agree with ENO's thoughts on the question of "artistry".
In this field, the concept of artistry is generally vague. If we approach the generally accepted concept of "artistic photo", then I think that for most people, the image (for example) of a spider will cause a far from pleasant feeling, no matter how "highly artistic" the image itself is. In principle, we are talking only about the necessary "lookability" of the photo and the means to achieve this.

Dear colleagues, when you shoot insects in yellow flowers, please do not forget to adjust the "white balance" later, otherwise it turns out as a photo through a yellow filter. smile.gif

Well, what is not an artistic and anatomical photo)) Harness steers) And yes, when you walk 25 kilometers a day, you somehow feel even this "harness" of 200g in weight, and I imagined that you need to pull 2kg in the black to everything else, but if it's on your neck-yes, let it speak in verse )))

This is a very good question, where are the wing scales?? Because what I see above is more like a colony of cocci with flagella in a cloudy liquid nutrient medium ))))

What was it Pan said: who has what hurts... Get well, sir. By the way, there are no cocci with flagella. Still, I shouldn't have left Pan uni. Although, as far as I remember, this is also in the school biology curriculum.

Well, let me explain on my fingers.
Both photos were taken with one camera and one glass.
One of them is artistic. The second is about the details.
Soviet lenses draw in no way. Just nothing. Wild soap, only high ISO saves them. Do you really think that if Soviet lenses drew really well, I would use this shit from Canon? Given that I don't really give a shit how much it costs.

If you do not understand the subject more than a log, then it is better not to enter into a polemic. There are quite a few makrushniki who make highly artistic photos of small animals, including spiders. Google it, or go to the macro club - expand your horizons. Well, or look at the well-known photo awards, it also skips there.

If you don't know how to represent an insect artistically, then who is to blame for not being born with a fantasy? Live within your own framework: full face, full face and profile.

No, well, Esox, are you normal? )) I told him a quote from the textbook, he told me "la la la" Yyy
By whose definition? I opened the BES, read a brief summary-cocci are spherical or oval-shaped bacteria. EVERYTHING, and about flagella there is not a word. So that so-aby blurt out, like smart, and it turns out that in words you are Leo Tolstoy, but in fact-and so it is clear ))))

14.04.2016 23:21, ИНО

And with the flagella, it will no longer be a spherical shape, the flagella will also be a part of it. If the coccus suddenly sprouts a flagellum (and this happens!) then it ceases to be a coccus. Some types of bacteria have several completely different forms that change in their life cycle. Perhaps pan, in order not to be unfounded, will bring a microphotograph of the very "cocci with flagella" that my photo of the belyanka wing reminded him of?

I bought an object and a CANDLE at a flea market today for a pupaar smile.gif
Oh, I wish I hadn't bought it..
And in general, yes, I specifically looked at various tests of Soviet objects, where non-photographic captive images are guaranteed, so they, to put it mildly, lose very much to passport ones. Only single instances are even more or less, while, as far as I understand, the objects of the USSR are also a lottery, you may be lucky, but most likely not.

I was obviously unlucky with this and the ANSWER, or they are just like that in themselves.
The object, at least as a macro attachment, which is included with other lenses, which in itself, is even more significantly curved than the industriar 61, at least because it has a FR of 110mm,and with such a FR everything is terribly curved.
Well, his exit pupil also does not fit with my Olympus, although Lisa is much larger in diameter there. And the pupil is very small, and acc. the object is dark as a searchlight of perestroika )
With venetirovaniem it would be possible to fight with a digital mind, so as not to bother with cropping later, but with such a picture it is better not to take pictures with them. It feels like it was shot through an Ezox lens, and not through a 4-lens object ..

Not, well, this is of course the ppc) That's why you can't just take something Soviet and start using it without further development.. You always need a hard finish, using a rasp and such a mother ))
After the alterations, the object certainly did not look like itself, but nevertheless, the cosmic swirls seemed to disappear, and even the vignetting became a little smaller, the scale of the image together with one of the lenses turned out to be 6mm, only the object - 10mm.

It seems to understand why it twists so much at the edges, alas, after I turned the object over and corrected the lenses, it became less twisted, but it still turns. The fact is that for this and almost all Soviet objects, the resolution is specified, for example, 50 lines in the center and 15 at the edges. And here just the object works with the entire surface, and the edges too, as a result, the curved edges fall into the frame. The conclusion here is simple - use lenses and lenses with the largest possible exit pupil as attachments, for the lens it is equal to its diameter and should be at least as the diameter of the output lens of the camera, but it is better to look much larger, and for the lens you need to look at the place, since a large lens diameter does not always mean a large pupil diameter.

And yet it is obvious that the Soviet objects are not the best, at least because they have completely different grinding technologies, the composition of the glass is improved. If you take Soviet electronics and modern ones, the difference is immediately visible )) And if you take the lenses, it seems that they are all the same, and that and that spherical and shiny, but in fact sovdepovskaya grinding and modern may differ as electronics of the same years wink.gif

18.04.2016 13:10, ИНО

And if you take Soviet genetics, then in general the seams, one Lysenkoism. But, for example, vehicles that make a soft landing on Venus, created outside the USSR, were not, and still are not. Why make such absurd comparisons? Small lenses to almost perfect condition learned to process long before the emergence of the USSR. And if after its collapse their shape has improved, then so little that on the soapolympus matrix you will still not notice the difference. About the fact that a large lens is better-not everything is so clear, the larger the lens, the harder it is to grind, and the worse it usually comes out. So large and at the same time high-quality lenses should not cost much. And any lens on the edge of the resolution is worse than in the center, even the native Panova kayak. But the human eye is designed similarly, and therefore does not pay attention to the strong deterioration of the image along the edge. But if you try to stitch together a panorama from several partially overlapping frames, the whole horror of the edge zone becomes noticeable. On Soviet lenses, the resolution was at least honestly indicated, and in some samples it was very high, up to 1000 (!) lines per millimeter. And what about modern imported cars? Company secret? Pan will probably want to buy the same lens for 900 CU, fasten it as a nozzle and compare it with the industry. And after that, fall into idolatry of the West or, depending on the result, modestly silent in a rag.

18.04.2016 19:27, Hierophis

And the proof, that is, the name of the Soviet photographic objective with 1000 lines per mm will be, or again balabol? )))

18.04.2016 19:44, Hierophis

Examples of photos via "improved" and Yandex. Checkout.
In general, if someone wants to use it as a macro attachment, then I recommend immediately clinging to it in reverse, and checking the correct location of the lenses, the first two, this object is really easy to understand, the lens hood is unscrewed and one of the lens blocks immediately falls out, and not fastened in any way, so it immediately divides into two lenses, and most importantly- attach it only to an object with an output lens diameter at least equal to the output lens diameter of that object. The central zone, somewhere about 7mm, it has more or less, and this is just the pupil of the same kenon A5XX A6XX.

Both microplanes and corectars sell the same technology, and they believe that the latter have a higher resolution. Probably for a reason. It is unlikely that they just make it up, the difference in price is insignificant. Why do you cite English-language sources? H. Z. who and how measured, and in what condition was the lens at that time (its path to the West, probably, was long and thorny). In the USSR, all lenses were given permission in their passports. Naturally, these are the results for new lenses, ideal conditions, and better films (there was one with 900 lines per millimeter, probably for a reason). There even the wavelength of the light used should be affected. Here-this information and you need to look, obviously, in Russian, and not in Bourgeois.

19.04.2016 11:32, Hierophis

It is clear (tm) that a low-level object designed for the 1X range will not do better than a high-level object (20X), which also has the highest resolution of the three microplanes, which is logical.
But Internet experts are not guided by obvious things, they are guided by what someone blurted out at the photo forum and what someone wrote at the flea market. And on the fence, too, something is written, but nevertheless behind the fence - firewood is lying ))))

19.04.2016 11:52, ИНО

I didn't catch the relationship between multiplicity and sharpness. Here is my magnifying glass nozzle gives more magnification than the last pan nozzle, but is it sharper? If you look at Microplanes, the difference in resolution between 20x and 10x is minimal, almost at the level of statistical error. So there's no point in pounding water in a mortar if pan can't find the manufacturer's data.

There it is clearly used in an inappropriate way, it is for a "hard" macro that passes into a micro. An example, I repeat (only this is OP-15, it is generally almost microscopic):

Even if the most powerful photojournalism magic is used here, I was still very impressed. But I didn't manage to Google the proofreader images. They say that it is very difficult with him, but those who were able to comprehend the wisdom are praised. Although I personally have a purely theoretical interest in all this, the lens is not replaceable in the soap box.

19.04.2016 19:23, Юрий352

Given a good image, it doesn't tell me anything: how it was made, on what, how many "cropped", one frame or "stacking", why the eyes are in "pollen"or scales(the butterfly is alive or fixed).
Here they clearly worked with everything they can, but for me, these lenses are more for" contrasting text", the halftones disappear somewhere, and without them "something is wrong".
The conversation on this category of lenses(with super resolution) is also purely theoretical for me, I have enough stocks of ordinary Soviet lenses from 37 to 500 mm(from magnifiers and apparatuses) for experiments, you can find time and "fasten" them, but you shouldn't spend money on it specifically.

The butterfly is clearly alive. The eye and foot are in pollen, without any quotation marks - a common phenomenon, not for nothing they are pollinators. I can't answer the question about possible stacking, but usually glues are not signed only with the name of the camera and lens model. But even if stacking - what's the difference? After all, we are not talking about GRIP, but about sharpness. And it is very high, even in comparison with top-end imported macro objects. Obviously, I can't understand semitones, etc.

19.04.2016 21:04, Юрий352

About semitones - this is certainly an amateur, but I don't like very contrasting photos.
Yesterday I slightly "twisted" the lens from the magnifier+ring, I am satisfied with its work.

Yes, this is a notable lens: sharp, light and cheap. Have you tried it on a larger scale (with rings)?

Meanwhile, my nozzle suddenly began to shoot tolerably well not only in the sun, but also in shallow shade, as well as cloudy weather. Whether it was God's intervention, or an extra-thorough wiping with a cotton swab with alcohol before eliminating even the smallest dust particles and streaks, it had such an effect (although the lens used to be quite clean before, if you don't fall into protectionism).
