Still life-2024

Very good, I like soft focus images.
The structure of the dresser looks very clear and sharp.
I never used a Vireto lens, is is typical for this lenses?

With the Imagon I getting more or less softness when I change the lens extension but only in + direction. Like I realise it in your picture as well
The Imagon has not a real sharp level like anastigmat lenses have, it is more 3D.
Maybe the Verito works similar?

It is my understanding that the Verito works by producing two images that focus at different planes, so one is always blurred. (Sorry if I’m oversimplifying it, feel free to correct me)
The amount of softness is controlled by how much you close down the aperture. The 9” Verito is an f4.0 lens, and I rarely close down further than f5.6 since the softness is almost completely gone by f8.0

The first Daffodils always appear in late February, and it never fails to surprise me. (I grew up in a colder climate, where Daffodils are a May thing)

Made with Fomapan 100, developed in PMK.
Camera: Intrepid 5x7 camera with the 9" Wollensak Verito lens, at f4.5

That is so beautiful.

This one is pretty much adorable.
And one of the best Meyer Plasmat performance I’ve ever seen.

Thank you for your kind comment.

I like the Plasmat lenses and I have some different foci in use.

I have to correct my description, I used the 173mm Satz Plasmat and not the 153mm.
