>>3271139The JB Weld epoxy has finally cured enough to give this lens a good test run. It has tons of Chromatic Aberration, but I like that for the style of photography I'll be doing with it. The Spherical Aberrations are greatly reduced when the aperture is in place and contrast/color are a bit better. Distant objects are not as good with this lens. With the aperture there's a ton of CA and without the aperture everything is too milky/hazy due to SA. I'll have to figure out precisely how I want to utilize those aspects. Otherwise, I'll stick to closer subjects and macro.
Here's some comparison shots for close-up/macro.
