[Leica] Wednesday Weeds

[Lluis Ripoll]

Very interesting and nice images!

Some time ago I have purchased at an affordable price the Angenieux enlarging lens G10, it is a focal length of 48mm and F4, this small difference with the 50mm F 4.5 Focotar makes a remarcable difference on the enlarger, it is a great lens and it manage very well the highlights.

One of the most interesting things of this lens is using it as a macro lens, the performance is superb, please look at:

I have no reflex camera, neither Visoflex to experiment but as you can see even in non macro uses it is excellent, a member of Flickr has explained me how to use it but I don’t know how to do it, the lens I have is with an adapter to M39 screw.
