266: Tea Bubbles

I attached an enlarger lens to the camera with electrical tape to get this shot! Sharpness slightly better than I thought, but not amazing. The composition and foam could have turned out a bit better, but it's an interesting test nonetheless. It was quite difficult to focus the lens, as it only had an aperture ring and I had to move the camera to focus; plus it was f/4.5 wide open, so not a great VF image.

Settings: f/5.6, 1/180, ISO 100, 50mm Paterson 1:4.5 M39, 8mm M42 extension tube, 1.4 flash, black velvet, foil reflector, tripod.
