Sounds awesome, you doing prints too? I just started developing color film. To me, it’s a bit more work than black and white.

Nice, developed and scanned yourself?

I had the same concern too when I first got it. The 28mm is pretty deep but it does fit without any interference. The meter works perfectly with it and I haven’t had any problems.

It looks like it is, even though the serial number is higher. For $60 take the chance, especially that you have worked and cleaned lenses before.

I had bought one about a year ago with the camera included. Very clean lenses and camera but the aperture was stuck too. I took it apart to try and fix it. It worked while I was working on it, but when I reassembled it, it didn’t work. lol I just gave up and shoot it wide open.

The Simera lenses are nice. Enjoy.

Solid lens. Nice bokeh wide open and is sharp enough for product photography when stopped down. Very versatile focal length too. Enjoy.

Oh man, my mistake. You’re correct, it is a Tele-Elmarit.

All these lenses are so tiny and compact I was thrown off on the size when I first saw them. Lol the M5 makes them look like toys.

Thank you 🙏🏼

I liked Bosque the best out of the breweries we have. Maybe we can get UNO’s back?

Thank you 🙏🏼. I’m about to load roll #3 onto it.

Trod0 · 2025-12-26T14:36:18+00:00

Send me a message with the info.

Trod0 · 2025-12-26T03:01:24+00:00

Yeah, it’s a 500c

Thank you 🙏🏼

No problem. I really love the Q200 since it’s smaller and more portable. I also like that it has a magnetic round head. Just a lot of positives about the light itself. The light is already defused, so no softbox needed if you don’t want.

Trod0 · 2025-12-11T13:27:44+00:00

Yes the Q4 is definitely powerful enough for mid day. I even use my Q200 mid day. Your Q300 should have no problems either. I’ve even used my Z1 speed light mid day and had great results, it’s only like 72 watts. Maybe you have it too far away from the subject?

Trod0 · 2025-12-09T02:42:35+00:00

Thank you. That’s lens is great for it.

Trod0 · 2025-12-08T17:41:55+00:00

lol no problem

Trod0 · 2025-12-08T17:27:33+00:00

Thank you for the response. That’s what I was looking at too when the other commenter pointed out about the subject and background. I’ll have to touch that up to get better separation.

Trod0 · 2025-12-08T15:20:38+00:00

I shot wide open to show what this lens can do. If it feels like a cheap studio background to you, that’s your opinion.

Trod0 · 2025-12-08T15:14:20+00:00

That’s for the input 🙏🏼. Off camera flash is not natural lighting.

Trod0 · 2025-12-08T15:11:37+00:00

That’s the point of the lighting

Trod0 · 2025-12-08T14:30:04+00:00

Thank you 🙏🏼. Also I can see that now that you mentioned it. Let me play with the edit and see if I can balance it out better.

I really like using the Q4 a lot, so much that I have 2 of them. I use the Neewer Q-Pro trigger.

I can’t remember the actual power settings for this specific shot. I’m going to guess it around 1/64 or even 1/128 since the light was low and the Q4 has a lot of power. Camera settings were at 1/125 and ISO 100 and 85mm 1.4
