Sunset Ultramarine

I wanted to create a picture of the cool air at sunset in late autumn. In the clear ultramarine blue sky, the remaining fire of the sunset is a deep scarlet red color. Japanese sentiment can be expressed by telegraph pols. The crescent moon is an old poet's friend.

EL Nikkor 50mm F4

The following images were taken without a lens hood. However, I dressed up with a Nikon L39 34.5mm filter.

This EL Nikkor 50mm F4 lens is an entry-level lens, and it is designed for photo enlargement, but it resolves well. The blue color reproduction is also perfect.

Capturing Sound with the Lens

I can see the cheering of boys and girls baseball. The smell of dry soil and grass. The sound of the wind. A lens that can capture sound are excellent.

Summer Journey

Nippon Kogaku's lenses have had excellent micro-contrast characteristics since the days of Imperial Japanese Navy submarine periscopes. It's the same with this Nikon small photo enlarger lens. You can take beautiful and brilliant photos with EL Nikkor lens.

Brilliant Picture

The lens is light, weighing only 57.5 grams. Despite the lightness and small size of the lens, the pictures that come out have a sense of scale. It is a neutral and transparent image without any unnecessary coloration. Sound, temperature, air pressure, and even wind speed are captured in the image.
