I've had a dig about in my old camera gear and found some interesting screw fit old lenses.Bought an adapter off EBay and decided to try them out.This shot is shot using a Canon 50d with a Greens Federal 135mm prime..These old lenses are manual focus on modern cameras but a lot of them give the modern stuff a run for their money and surpass them,The built quality is second to non..This lens is circa 1968 and I've decided to replace my competition shot..

You replaced it with a dandy Count B. I have a couple of lense in my old Canon Bag. Maybe I should give a look see. One is a macro.
Thanks for the tip.
The berries look quite good in the dim light.
