Minced bokeh

If someone is tired of the boring 'bakeshki' obtained with Planarov, SonnarovOtusov and Heliosov, then in this article Radozhiva proposes a 'hard-core' solution for creating 'unique' minced bokeh.

It is very easy to create an 'interesting' bokeh - just ask your grandmother for a meat grinder attachment, which you can then install instead of a light filter on your favorite lens. I attached this attachment to the lens Minolta MC Rokkor-PF 1: 1.4 f = 58mm using tape. But it's easier to stick it on safety filter :). Then you can go and take off the fabulous 'meat grinder' minced bokeshki.

Such a focus will only work with the use of high-aperture optics. The higher the F number, the more visible this 'filter' will appear in photographs.

Also on the topic, I advise you to look at the review MC Zenitar-ME1 1,7 / 50 :)

  • Dmitriy

    Arkady, I would add that in addition to beautiful bokeh, this nozzle will be an excellent protective light filter! :) Filters stones flying into the camera and so on.! :)

    • Peter Sh.

      And shots from an RPG!

    • Wacom

      Ahaha - awesome!
      But seriously, the bokeh from this attachment looks terrible! I prefer the uniform “creamy” bokeh that I get when using high-quality, fast optics.

  • Konstantin

    Cool! to the museum

  • Pastor

    This is great! Great idea! At the weekend I’m going to look for an old meat grinder and give her a second life :)

    • Igor

      cut it out of cardboard and put it on the lens
      :)

  • Lef

    Oh, he looks smart. They told me about such a nozzle, only with small holes, about 1 mm. And here is xD

  • Ilya

    Weekend plans appeared)) Thanks for the great examples.

  • fedot

    I don’t know whether you already wrote about this or not,
    but instead of this attachment from a meat grinder you can yourself
    make filters from black cardboard for interesting bokeh:
    in the form of hearts, stars, crosses, letters ...

    You can get interesting results.

  • zengarden

    You can also add a strainer; for tea bokeh :)

  • Oleg

    but after all - minced bokeh turned out.

  • Yuriy75

    Inspired by your article with the keyhole, used a meat grinder knife last fall ...

  • anonym

    Pampering is all this, gentlemen.

    • Iskander

      And why not indulge, we indulge in beer, yes ...

  • Igor

    Awesome

  • Dmitriy

    Fantasy! Very stuffing! ))))

  • Alexander

    Creative! Now at flea markets prices for old meat grinders will skyrocket ...))

  • Alexey

    That's exactly why I like your site, Arkady!
    For simplicity and subtle humor.
    Thank you!

    • Gene jb

      +1

  • varezhkin

    good protective filter ... :) I wonder what is the diameter of the grinder?

    • Igor

      Finding 55mm: DD

      • Grandfather Fedor

        I need 72mm. :-) can anyone have

  • Vyacheslav S.

    Tough, original, frightening and beautiful)))

  • anonym

    Original)))

    In the 70s, I shot it on Zenit, only drilled holes in the lid, forgot only the formula, there the hole diameter and the distance between them were calculated depending on the focal length of the lens, I had one on Helios, the second on Jupiter 37A. The bokeh was more interesting than on examples, then you won’t take it from the kandachka))).

  • Konstantin

    Something similar is used in amateur astronomy.
    It's called a focusing mask.

  • Vladimir Pochtarev

    Such experiments are best done using Lensbaby Double Glass Optic.
    Lensbaby sells a set of diaphragms with different patterns for such experiments, and even a set of blanks for diaphragms can be practiced as you like ... :-)

    • Arkady Shapoval

      pfff, sold ... but how to support the domestic meat grinder?

  • Michael

    It became like a watercolor painting :)

  • Yarkiya

    If anyone is interested, neat holes are made as a regular office punch. On paper, naturally.

  • KalekseyG

    in the photo with yellow flowers c. in the upper right corner you can clearly see the meat grinder - left, those who do not know will immediately bite into what was filmed
