Here I found that f2.5 it too shallow if I'm not careful. I'd added tilt and swing and the band of focus was too narrow and missed the MPP logo. The learning continues!

..if you saw the video this lens is both the fastest and has the best DOF / bokeh (+a little swirl) + sharp at f2.5 (where in focus).. Leica for the win! :)

I added slight lens tilt here so you see the nice separation (+ the foreground stick in focus!). Need to use this more.

I think I used a lens cap to guess the exposure and cover the shutter for this shot, if you look carefully it looks like there is a slight ghost effect on the back/ top the camera (yet the front is super sharp). Loving this lens. Just managed to remount it to a MPP Copal 3 board so I don't need to lug the Speed Graphic around to use it.

Sorry, 1 more. (The last one!) See the full video on YT! youtu.be/f7txuqWuF0I

If you didn't see the video this lens has no shutter and the camera has no shutter so I guessed the time and used a lens cap on-off as my shutter. It worked!
