–Still hot. Last day, perhaps.<\/p>\n
–Sent two Rolexes off to Rolliworks: 1680 for movement service and case refinish, Sea-Dweller for case work only.<\/p>\n
–Stopped at the Rancho post office to inquire about the Helios lens that’s been traveling around the country. Should be coming soon, they said.<\/p>\n
–Went to Bel Air for milk and cream Tried to make espresso on the lever Cremina and just got water, as has happened before. I really need to update the portafilter gaskets on both machines.<\/p>\n
–Picked up the Zeiss 85\/1.4 lens at UPS. Massive, as remembered. At f1.4 it was a little washed out compared to the 85\/2.8 at f2.8. But when I tried the cottage cheese shot again at f2.8, it was gorgeous–contrasty and saturated. Unfortunately, it does have a slight flare using my desk light test, as does the 2.8, so I guess it will end up as a bokeh lens, which it is optimized for anyway. I’m just flabbergasted at the proportion of vintage multi-coated lenses that flare.<\/p>\n
–Did a noise test between SL2 and SL2-S. SL2-S definitely shows less noise at ISO 3200.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
