This image has a bit of a fun origin

This is a picture of a 3D printed miniature Krusty placed in front of a computer monitor displaying an image of mountain view. It was taken using a 1960s 16mm Soviet projector lens adapted (after a couple hops) to a Lumix G9. The image was then ran through Lightroom, Audacity, Lightroom again, and the parental advisory logo was added afterwards using Gimp.

The model is roughly 1 inch tall.

The model was unpainted at the time of the photo and I have since given the model to a friend. Though I’ll probably print more of him.

    They’re not as expensive as I initially thought it they’re still more expensive than vintage glass. I think my lens cost like $100 after shipping.

    Edit: But vintage lenses do have some interesting traits that you really don’t seem to get from modern lenses due to each of their individual histories.
