playing with old and new lenses

Good afternoon,

Not really good weather for my macro photography this morning, to much sunlight and to much wind, but never the less i did my #wednesdaywalk in the garden armed with my camera.

First thing i spotted the Scarlet lily beetle ( Lilioceris lilii ) eating from my crown imperial ( Fritillaria imperialis)

Time to swap lenses , and switch to the Minolta MC Rokkor 28mm + 16mm extension tube to see if that could get the same result as the
Laowa 15mm F/4 Wide Angle Macro that is still have on my wishllist 😁

The old lens does have some nice flairs

Awesome photos all three lenses work well, they may be old but still do a great job

I hadnt heard of the Laowa and had to check it out online and quite impressed by it, maybe I will watch out for one someday

Thanks for joining the Wednesday Walk, its my pleasure to host it and see all the posts each week from all around the world, including yours, if you have time visit some of the other walks this week there are so many interesting ones

Thank you JJ , the venus Laowa make every nice lenses most are manual focus but the build quality is high.
will try to visit some of the other walks today , going to need a refill or 2 on my coffee for that 😉

Yeah I saw good reviews of them

I know most people are busy and just suggest people visit a few others, no pressure at all, it all depends on the time a person has

It's too Great Macro lense price too high i think
But those result are more satisfied

modern lenses can be expensive indeed

Yeah That Why I can't buy 🙂 Those lense
