the 200mm makes for an awful street lens (who woulda thought)
very far minimum focus distance and unpleasantly soft until f16 and also the k3iii is not pleasant for manual focus. i need to see if i can find a split screen prism for it...
however... it does make me like the idea of telephoto for street. maybe something in the like 100mm range would be nice.
it doesnt look like this at all in person
the dither goes silly on this one (first image dithered gif second image jpg)
dead end of mall. behind a fairly busy intersection. we sat on those little tables staring forward at the plastic wall for about an hour. many passersby were confused, concerned, scared, or just plain amused. we didn't really mean to commit to the idea for so long it just sorta happened.
28mm 2.8 manual focus k mount its capable of being p sharp
surprisingly few of these left unedited in the backlog. i take this exact shot so often. i'll prbobably figure out a place online to put them all next to each other someday
the final product is nothing what the preview window looked like. experimenting with masked sections of posterization and sections of dither
and that finishes what we started back in october. there's various other photoshoots i've been avoiding touching but I think I'm ready to get em done now.
coming back to this shoot with a better idea of how to edit it

100mm is v nice. you can focus down more, very recommend the short telephoto if you can get one
