Kodak Ektanon 3 Inch f2 Projection Lens: A Photo Set

I covered the conversion of this Kodak Projection Ektanon 3 Inch f2 lens here, if you are interested to know how it's mounted on the NEX-6.  Just want to emphasize the importance of a lens hood.  Without it, the lens will become very prone to stray lights and loss of contrast.

Due to the long travel of the focusing helicoid, this lens can focus very close, but at the same time can focus to infinity.  I am having a great time with this very light weight, yet excellent lens.  The only issue I have, is that depth of field is very thin, especially when used for close-ups.  Getting critical focus can be challenging, but with the NEX-6, I find it much easier to use than on the NEX-5N with the external EVF.

Hope you enjoy this set of pictures.
