With the builders ensconced and thus being under effective house arrest today, I decided to play with it. View from my garage down my drive to Monkstown Road. Note Victorian 12 pane window in house in the distance - shown just above my car roof. Sony A7ii with Zuiko 35/2.8 lens. Can be seen LARGE. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DouglasBray/Drive+Window+35.jpg.html The same Victorian 12 pane window shown just above my blurred car roof - uncropped. Sony A7ii with Soviet era Pentacon 300/5.6 lens and Tokina 2X Converter. Can be seen LARGE. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/DouglasBray/Drive+Window+600.jpg.html Folks, it's maybe nearly Russian, but it's yuuuge, and great. Great and yuuuge. Some people say I've got the biggest and best glass in the world. Anyone from the lying Leica loving mainstream press who says different is telling you fake news :-) Douglas
