Old vs New... The Eternal "Battle"

<center>**Contemporary lens makers are constantly trying to correct all the optic "defects" from the past, such as barrel distortion, ghosting, etc. Searching for that "perfect" image, whatever that is anyway.**</center>

<center>**Ironically those are actually the characteristics why some people are looking for those old vintage pearls again and mounting them on their modern camera bodies, specially full frame mirror-less ones.**</center>

<center>**The bokeh (blur) achieved with a vintage lens is incomparably better than any modern sterile piece of glass built mainly with one thing in mind, sharpness.**</center>

<center>**Both next images were shot with a Pentacon 50mm, built in the old GDR.**</center>


<center><sub>Sony a7 + Pentacon 50 1.8 --- ISO 100 --- f/1,8 --- 1/800 sec</sub></center>

<center>**I am not really sure what the next subject is, I just know that it's a baby bush of some type.
I spotted it while walking around in a little park near my place.**</center>
  
<center>**To be honest I wasn't caring much about the "model" when I was shooting these, all I wanted to see was the "fireworks" in the background of each image.**</center>
