BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY AND ART: The Whale

This is some old Nikon Nikkor 35-70 mm portrait lens. I believe it's from the late 80s & early 90s. I like it much more than many of the new Nikon's lenses. It has this "special effect".

It blurs the background very nicely.
I also like the old manual optics. If you get the chance, try the Helios 40-2 lens (85mm focal length). I think you will like it too.

Wait bro! I was wrong! It was not that lens! Here I used Canon 60 mm macro lens mounted on Canon EOS 60D...

But I decided to move to Nikon full frame cameras & maybe if I manage to find some well preserved used Canon full frame camera, I'll buy it too...

This Helios is compatible with Nikon D800 maybe?

I use SONY A7M2 camera.
I can't say anything about Canon and Nikon. Maybe it's a good choice. But as I have seen, the lens and camera matrix are crucial. Everything else is secondary :)
Helios can be combined with any camera. Now there are many different adapters. Helios has an M42 thread. This is a purely manual lens and the simplest and cheapest adapter will do.

OK, thanks for the info! I'm in a bit hard financial situation now so I don't think much about the photo equipment & I'm even trying to sell 2 lenses. But I'm thinking also about investing some money in the equipment as soon as my financial status improves!

I understand. But this is a fairly budget lens. In our market, it costs about $30-35

OK, I'll check it out as soon as I get out of my debts... Thansk!

You are welcome 🖐️ 😊

By the way, I see what @Stef1 wrote to you. She curates photographers and artists on Steam and especially in the WOX community.
She wanted to get you interested in becoming more active on Steam.
I also supervise something here :) There is a program to support beginners. Yes, you are not a beginner, but you are a good photographer. My program has an application to support creative users. For 30 days, a delegation of 250SP is given and support for one post per day from the curators of WOX. There are certain conditions, but they are simple.

OK, I have just read the post & I really like the opportunity! So, if I want to apply for the support program, I should just write the application in the comment of that post?
