[UV, VIS] Rudbeckia fulgida meets Zeiss UV-Planar 60mm

Shots from our wonderful Hermanshof Park here in Weinheim, of a Rudbeckia fulgida variant shot, using a Zeiss UV-Planar 4/60mm lens and Baader-U filter for the UV shot.

This lens is so sharp, already fully open, so stopping down is only needed to control the DOF (depth of field).


Stay tuned, more will follow on that fascinating subject...
