Taking Pictures With the 100-Year-Old Lens (10 pics)

Posted in PICTURES       28 Mar 2012       16413

Photos taken through the lens of the Piccolette Contessa-Nettel folding camera from 1926 attached to the modern Canon 5D SLR. The Zeiss lens, which is almost 100-year-old, is still capable of making sharp images, though the lack of coating produces strong lens flare under back and lateral lightning.
