Because Nikon Z is a mirrorless camera with a short flange back, it is possible to shoot at infinity. I photographed a scene like an old movie. All photos were taken with lens open F1.5.

Meaning of Life

Röntgen Xebec 5cm F1.5 is a specialized lens that does not deliver the ultimate in fine details, sharpness, bokeh and point-light rendering. Imagine the possibilities of old lens. I wonder where the noble old lens is.

Meaning of Lens

Röntgen Xebec 5cm F1.5 lens is designed to be shot wide open. If you don't shoot with the NIPPON-KOKEN's Indirect X-ray Camera, R Xebec 5cm F1.5 does not achieves outstanding resolving power from the maximum aperture by no intensively compensating the various aberrations that are usually noticeable with fast lenses.
However, you can take wonderful poetic pictures.
