[LargeFormat] 150mm/f2.8 xenotar photos

[Rei Shinozuka]

i was idly trying out my xenotar to do some candids.  the lens sacrifices 
circle of coverage and lens movements for speed, and i am a speed freak.
here are the nicest two images.  there are very few images on the net
taken with this lens.

at the bottom of the page i make the observation that the xenotar
is a noctilux on steroids.  because of the format, the out of focus
areas are even creamier.

i hope to spend more time with this fascinating optic.
