<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
Hi everyone, just quick posts while we are trying to get through another hot Georgia summer.\u00a0 These next few posts will be gear oriented, me showing off what has recently been thrifted or gifted! That and finally revisiting camera+lens combos that I’ve had on the to-do list for quite sometime.<\/p>\n
This is a Sony (but made by Canon!) TV lens with the specs of 12.5-75mm f\/1.8.\u00a0 It’s a C Mount lens that will mount on my J1\/V1 cameras via a simple adapter but vignettes heavily.\u00a0 That’s okay because it does give an interesting vintage look to the photos.\u00a0 (You can search on my site for older posts tinkering with these tiny C mount lenses on various cameras)<\/p>\n
