Experimenting with GH5 and Nikkor-O 55/1.2 (a.k.a. CRT Nikkor).

(The spec seen on the top part of the first image dosen't appear in the originall edited RAW file.  I wonder if it is the compression artifact?)

Thanks, Arthur.  I had seen that green chrysanthemum for the first time and was also attracted to that tender color.

Always enjoyable seeing your images made with this lens, Akira.

Thanks, Jakov.

Lenses and cameras come and go, but this one has stayed with me ever since it had arrived.  I love its character.  :)
