#58 Furrier. I am using the Mir1 37mm F2.8 Russian designed lens and it is very confusing with "wrong direction" aperture ring, plus, the focus ring is in the "wrong" place closer to the body, I keep turning the aperture ring by mistake.
In the end I shot at hyperfocal and preset the focus.

 

[madmartian]

Wherever the aperture ring is, whatever direction you turned, whatever mistake you made, you got a great shot wai! :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

I like!

I cranked the aperture to increase Dof instead of getting everything in focus

:sweat:

#59 Furry repose (a little blur due to lack of lens familiarization) (Mir1 37/2.8 )

#60 (I seem to have gotten the hang of shooting the Mir1 37/2.8 now

Maybe you should let the cat use it on you. It might work the other way round..............:bsmilie:

it is very difficult to use paws to turn the focus ring. I tried asking the cat but all she said was "Meow".

I took out my tripod and all my whole set of manual lenses for a workout today. Very satisfying!
#61: Cat with intent (my new copy of Pentacon 135mm 2.8 Bokeh MONSTERRRRR (rrrrwwwwwwwwww) )

#62 The Cat is near the pearl (chinese idiom, go figure out) . I barely managed to avoid getting run over by the reversing BMW myself as well. (Nikkor 50/1.4 AI)
