Awesome vintage lens with crazy bokeh!! D.I.Y Project.

Today we are taking a closer look at Mansfield Mantinar 40mm f2.8 - a quirky vintage lens from the early 1960's. This lens produces some unusual bokeh when stopped down! I had a lot of fun using it and if you want to try adapting it I've included a step-by-step guide on how to do it yourself. And if you have any questions don't hesitate to ask.
I hope you'll enjoy the latest episode and thank you for watching.
