Pentax K10D+ 1970's 50mm f4 SMC Macro-Takumar

[pentaxpete]

I use my 1970's 50mm f4 SMC Macro-Takumar on my Pentax K10D with the screw-bayonet adaptor quite successfully for 'macro- photos - some I use with an ' Elicar' Ringflash and some I used Tungsten lighting ( changing the White Balance to 'Tungsten')
Circuit Board, Tungsten lights, diffused by flash umbrella, camera on a copy stand vertically.

Thanks for viewing and comment-- I like taking ' Stll-life' and 'table-top' where I get to EAT the 'Sitters' afterwards !
