[Leica] IMG: Dublin Bay with a Russian Eye

[Douglas Barry]

Armed and Ready.
I walked down the few hundred metres from the house to Seapoint and its 
Napoleonic era martello tower with a good vista of Dublin Bay. I decided 
to give my Moscow made Jupiter 9 with its M39 screw fit a run using a 
Leica M adaptor and a Fotodiox M to NEX to fit it to the Sony. I'm not 
sure whether it's the Russian factory lens quality control or a poor 
quality Fotodiox adaptor, but I've never been entirely happy with this 
lens/camera combination. This image shows that it works, but needed 
sharpening by 34% using PSE's Unsharp Mask.
The strange thing about this Russian lens is, looking through it, you 
felt the need to take possession of everything you see through it...
