E-series lens - 50mm f1.8 Photos

I have this 50mm e-series lens which was bought together with my nikon fe. It has a maximum apperture of f1.8 to f22, its an f-mount lens also a full manual no non-sense lens. Here are some photos taken with my D40 mounted with the said lens.

Things I noticed when using this lens are:
- fully manual
- no light metering since its an old e-series lens
- very good at bokeh
- sharp when using f4 and above
- very good on low light conditions

It may take some time getting used to this kind of manual lens but I can guarantee that great reward awaits you if you got to know using this lens.

Olympus Pen (1959) Half Frame Slr - Test Shots

Finally I was able to developed and scanned all of my photos taken with this camera.
Images were pretty decent and sharp for this kind of camera although my only gripe was that exposure compensation have to be performed meticulously or you will get over/under exposed images.

Here are some images taken with this camera, there is some developing problems which is evident on the photos...(I still have to work on my process).
