Unfortunately, you have gotten a lot of us hooked as well.

A lot of us are hooked, and Jim has all the lenses...

Jim,
Thanks for posting these images. They are a great help to me in deciding which soft focus lens I will search for next.

Currently I have 9" Veritar with a faulty shutter for which I use 2 5x7 holders as a shutter, and a 12" Wollensak Series II with diffusion. I find that the diffusion for the Wollensak only moves the focus to the rear, and consequently rarely use it, I use both lenses wide open as I have enough sharp lenses to use for that type of image.

Thanks everyone. APUG is blocked to me at work (hmmm........they finally caught on??) so I had to wait until I got home to see what everyone had to say. Yes, it's an evil plot. I plan to buy all the neat old lenses, drive the prices through the roof by chatting them up, then sell them for huge profits <:evil laugh:> Except the P&S which you'll have to pry from my cold dead fingers.
