Tutorial: Revers lens
I always wanted take macro photos but couldn't afford an expensive macro lens. I have a professional camera but why should I use it when my smartphone can take better macro then my expensive Mirroless or SLR camera? So here is a tutorial that show you how can you take macro photos without going bankrupt. Revers lens, probably you heard about this in some point in your life. I found it back in 2010 and found that I can get very dissent photos out of it. This doesn't require very much from you So what you need? simply, a camera and a good cheap lens like 50mm 1.8 (bigger aperture is better) for the basic revers lens I'm using two lenses for this technique and I will explain why later on this tutorial so this is my setup I using Pentax K7D that cost me 200$ back then from a second hand the lens that I using is Pentax 85mm f/2.0 and and 55m f/1.8 manual focus that each one of them cost me 25$ (I found that Pentax giving you very good lens for very cheap price and also the camera
Modifying Russian lens for Nikon (Industar 50-2)
Yesterday I finally got M42 mount ring adapter for Nikon
the first lens I tried to put on the camera was the Helios 44-2, after I attached it on the camera I found that it have infinity focus problem so I have to modify the lens so it can go to infinity.
so today I took other old Russian lens that I own
the lens is Industar 50-2, standard 50mm f/3.5, probably on of the cheapest lens that been produced during the soviet time
you can get it from eBay for 20$
it came as a kit lens on Zenit-E
originally this lens designed for rangefinder cameras like Zorki or Kiev during the 50's
during it evolution it have been modify for Russian SLR
Modifying Russian lens for Nikon (Helios 44-2)
as most of you may know, in this days it not so hard and expensive to get an old Russian film camera like Zorki or Zenit
for example because my family and me originally came from USSR we have a lot of old Russian cameras at home
also many Russians immigrate to Israel and to the rest of the world during the 90's so it very easy to find second hand old camera.
so what good about old Russian cameras and lenses?
in my opinion the biggest advantage of russian cameras and lens is that most of them have been replicated from German cameras like Leica. also some of the lens have been replicated.
this cameras and lens have been mass produced and
Think Outside the Box: Scanography
not so long ago I bought a new A3 printer with scanner for my studies so I be able to print plans on A3 without going out from my apartment.
today I set it and check it and It prints very well
the next step was to check the scanner, it more practical then scanning with camera, you don't have to edit it after you take the photo of the scanned object. the printer did a quite good hob at scanning on of my sketches.
and then I thought that principally it doing the same job as a camera that aimed straight to the object.
could it work as a camera? could it be an artistic tool.
soon I went on the internet and I found my answer very fast.
well,
