Hi Ilya,

You may be interested in this: Fairytale portrait . I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!

Interesting lens, and model. And approach.

 

I did have a look at your flicker site (link above) and enjoyed my visit. I would recommend the "Albums" to those who are interested in seeing how different lenses render.

 

What is you favourite portrait lens?

Thank you for visiting my Flickr. Also, I have "Albums".

When I used Canon, favourite portrait lens was 85L f/1.2II and 70-200/2.8L II

Now on Sony – I dont have an answer. I like projection lens (Visionar), I like old manual primes (like this Summarit 50/1.5), I like old cine lenses (I have russian ОКС1-75-1).

I want AF 135mm for Sony, but I don't like Batis 135/2,8 – dark for me. Waiting news from Sony and (especially) from Sigma for FE-mount.

The first for me. Love the background.

Unique thread for lens hood (or for filters) on this lens - 41mm, never met before...

Have tried Leica Summarit 50/1.5 (1952) on my a7rII, and fell in love (with this lens).

Hi!! 

This is very nice!! I do wish there were new lenses that did this. I can see why HCB liked it!! I like pretty much all of what he did.
