The Rokkor should work fine, you might need to pre-focus it to within the focus ballpark. Not sure what EF-LM adapter you purchased, not all of them will be mountable on the TAP. The Leicaist adapters sold by Techart work but are expensive, you can purchase the same adapter on eBay for a much a cheaper price. I'm not sure the use of manual EF lenses are worth the trouble to use on the Teacart. I have a very large collection of Zeiss ZE and Otus lenses however because of the lack of aperture rings on the ZE mounts you won't be able to change the aperture without mounting the lens on a Canon body or a Sony body with a metabones adapter.

I've slowly been collecting some legacy LTM lenses, Canon lenses in particular, they are tiny and work extremely well with the TAP.

I should have read more of that thread before ordering, luckily the nikon and OM will work, canon wont.

Yes the 15, it's such a great lens, by far my favourite ultra wide although in the back of my mind I'm slowly starting to rethink my ultra/wide angle combinations. I've always used the 15 and 21 distagons as my primary wides but as you know they are huge and a pain to travel with. I tried the Voightlander 15, it's tiny but the corners aren't as good as on the distagon. I'm considering adding the Loxia 21 and the Voightlander 12 as my travel combo or if funds permit I'm also considering the Leica WATE but that's way more than I really want to spend.

Some candids from a college graduation dinner shot with the FE 55 (my most versatile lens).

Looks great...and great word on the FE 55. Looking forward to adding it to my kit once I get my Canon-mount stuff sold.

Just having some fun...Getting myself off my patio. I decided to change the background to another composite image I made earlier. The scene was taken on the road back to Holbrook, Az. from a friend's house in eastern Arizona. I replaced the sky in that image to add more drama to it. To finish off, I added a color look up table layer (LUT) so that the color tones were more even.

Looks good. How about dodging the edges of your profile (especially the hair) with that golden sunlight color for simulated back lighting?

Good idea David. I know the lighting doesn't match between the two images so probably nothing would help much. This is what happens when I get bored, I get sloppy. :rolleyes:

I set off hiking in the dark this morning to try and get a bit of height before sunrise. This is looking back down Glen Mark where I had just walked from

This is a self portrait from the summit of Mount Keen where I was headed. I used my little Manfrotto pocket tripod for this and my cheap remote timer with 2 second delay. Im finding this a great setup for hiking

I used the "FallColors.look" in the "Load 3D LUT" dropdown list for my edit. I changed the opacity a little and different blend modes give different results too.

I haven't applied that look in the image below yet.

I've never even seen that drop down. I wonder if it's in cs6. I'll check later
