Yashica ML 28-85mm f/3.5-4.5 Macro - Test shot
A pre-cleanup test shot on a Sony NEX-F3. The heavy haze buildup has effected contrast, color rendering, and has softened the focus. Note the overall blue-ish cast to everything pictured, even though the camera was set to Auto White-balance in a scene lit entirely by daylight. (RAW conversion only, no post processing)
