ABSTRACT

It is ironic that one of my favorite images from my 35 mm days was taken with the worst lens I have ever owned. It only took two films before I identified serious aberrations and terrible color fidelity. In the early days of zoom lenses, the standard zoom of the 20 to 80-something variety were optically worse than their fixed focal length cousins. Their use, however, was popular with many walkers, for the dramatic improvement on portability and convenience that they provided. straight print, filter 2.5, 6.7 seconds, Agfa Multicontrast Classic https://s3-euw1-ap-pe-df-pch-content-public-p.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com/9780240816265/ffb21561-2f2c-4dca-99ec-f086fc154d4d/content/figch52_1_OC.jpg" xmlns:xlink="https://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"/>
