Lens test, old Ford Tractor............

[Kelley (Texas)]

This test picture of the old Ford Tractor amid some junk was taken with my Sony NEX-6 camera using a vintage Tokina RMC 35-105mm F3.5 lens with the following settings: F11, 1/250, ISO 200, Daylight white balance, manual focus, Manual Mode. Sunny with some clouds gave me some problems because the exposure conditions kept changing on me, but you use what is available and make the best of it, makes it interesting. Verdict is still out as to whether or not this lens is a keeper or not.

It feels great to finally get out in the field again, even on a limited basis as I am still slowly recovering from the broken neck. I use a cane and I take a folding metal chair with me, and make sure that there are no large dogs around that might view me as an easy meal. Life is great. Kelley (Texas)

Looks like a keeper to my eyes.......well sharp and lovely colours.

Yes, definitely a keeper. Such great sharpness and clarity.

I'm so happy you're getting out and about again. Little by little and take it slow. We're proud of you for what you've been through and have accomplished.

Really nice I think. What zoom setting did you have this shot at, the max? I can even read the "wrangler" tire label.

it was probably around 75mm. I seldom use any zoom lens at its highest focal length, but rather use the zoom to assist me in framing the picture. Sorry for the delay in answering your question. Kelley (Texas)
