102-Year-Old Lens Plus Canon 5D Mark II Equals Instant Vintage Photos

102-Year-Old Lens Plus Canon 5D Mark II Equals Instant Vintage Photos: "


Photographer Timur Civan had a project that required vintage-looking photographs. Originally planning to shoot the project on a 4×5 large format camera, he abandoned that route after calculating the cost for equipment and processing. His lens technician friend then discovered a 1908 Wollensak 35mm F5.0 Cine-Velostigmat hand-cranked lens in a box of spare parts, and spent 6 hours helping him make the lens fit on an EF mount for Civan’s 5D Mark II.



Check out these untouched JPEG images straight from the camera:







Instant vintage photographs! Is that cool or what?
