Fuji Showcase Canon FD 24mm f/2.8

Sort of an odd image to post, but it seemed like a good lens test. I'm pretty happy with how this 24mm works on the X-E1.

Nice examples! I am not really into Canon but the results look very promising

Thanks! I've never had any Canon cameras myself, but I bought this FD 24mm to use on one of my Panasonics. As it turns out, it's much more useful to me on the X-E1.

Thanks to operator error, the sky on this one was overexposed. The operator hacked together a contrast mask in GIMP, and the results seem much better.
