Some reprocessed images from May 2019 with a cyclops on Canon M5. The cyclops was originally adapted from Russian field glasses, but this one was made especially for photography. I have another one somewhere that I took from some field glasses, and is EOS fit I think. Need to find it and see if I have M4/3rds adapter ..... can't remember the aperture, but it's wide and can only shoot it as is - which is wide! I bought it for the bokeh.

Bokeh - through the lemon tree from memory.
Calendula - very soft. Missed focus really, which is quite an art with this lens!

I wouldn't worry about the vignette, everything about that lens which you've posted has been charming. It is what it is, warts n'all.

Yes- I could not resist, the pictures belong on their own thread-

And reminded me of an OLD CSN song.
I’ve been really enjoying the images you’ve been posting with this lens and very impressed with how they still stand wide open.
Thanks, Ray!
It is a fine lens and a pleasure to use with the typical Pentax quality build. Easily the smallest of the 3 "high speed" lenses I have.
It does get "glowy" at f/1.2 at close distances but so do the other two and personally, I rather like that look
Great, I like it even more now
.Only one of these. I converted the best of the 1960s SLR lenses to Leica M-Mount.
Canon 50mm F1.4, FL-Mount lens, converted to RF coupled M-Mount. I made an RF cam for this lens.
On the M Monochrom.

The EXIF under your photos state that they're all made with f/1.2. Seeing the photos that looks improbable to me, I guess some of them at least are made with much smaller apertures like f/5.6 or so? Very curious about that. If they all are shot wide-open, I'm extremely impressed!

No, not at all, Ad: only the maximum aperture gets written to the EXIF. The adapter is purely mechanical.
The "name", the focal length and the maximum aperture are coming from an "app" on the Sony a7ii: lens compensation. I don't "compensate" anything but at least these three parameters are written to the EXIF.
As far as I know, this "app" isn't supported on the next models anymore.
