Also, these were mostly taken with an Oly 17 on E-P1 with some taken with C/V Color-Skopar 50 on the E-P1.

I just picked up a 80-200mm f4 L and 500mm f4.5 L (both with fluorite & UD glass) from an estate sale in Reno, NV. Both are in pristine condition, looks like they have only been handled, not really used outside; not even a mark on the tripod foot of the 500mm. ...

Very nice, looking forward to seeing some from the 500.

Here's some tests kinda like that with the FD 50/1.4 SSC:

High contrast WO makes it go all bloomy. But in normal contrast or when stopped down to 2.0, there's not too much of a problem.




100% Crops in the bottom image group.



100% crops with embedded full frame doing normal contrast or stopped down to f/2:

On second thought I think I'll post it here

My overall opinion so far : FL has less glow at wide open, bokeh looks the same though in several shots looks a tiny bit smoother, a bit underexposed on my Canon 5DII, the color looks bit muddy while the FD looks bit better, in some shots looks a bit sharper.


hmm the FL actually looks a bit sharper, but that could be due to wind or many other variables. bokeh looks pretty bad for both of them. i'm not feeling like i should run out and buy an FD version.

here's a pano from the FL at f/5.6 (most likely):

larger version can be found here:

i'm pretty sure the full sized version would look good printed 10ft high.

So far all my FLs have been sharper then their FD equivalents. More of that bloom when wide open but also sharper - usually just enough to be noticeable. I can't say the same about nFD vs. FL tho.

Nice GGB shot btw... I've stood on that exact same spot! Neat!

Hi,

Some really good images being posted ...

Michael49: Wow...the cherries shot is awesome

Hopefully, if the weather settles down here for a bit, I'll be able to take these out in the woodlands for a spin...

Hi nixland,

you inspired me to finally compare my FL 55/1.2 with the FD 55/1.2 S.S.C side-by-side in a controlled setting.
Not the best setting but I only have time for this stuff in the evening when the light is gone.
Results are here:
http://picasaweb.google.com/102844343222651071068/ComparisonFL5512FD5512?authkey=Gv1sRgCIiOg9jJ7PeIag#5664055339615044146

The pictures where taken with the lens that is not in the picture (in case that is not obvious).
The focus (live view * 10) was on the Tabasco bottle. Used tripod with self-timer on a EOS Kiss X4 (550D). AWB with warm compact fluoro light. Although picasaweb adds some jpeg compression you can zoom in to full size get a pretty good idea of the (fairly slight IMHO) differences.

I have to say the FL actually handles a bit nicer is more compact and the Auto/Manual switch is particularly useful. The FD has half aperture stops (not shown in this comparison) and is bulkier.
From the limited use I have with these two I have the impression that the FD is better controlled for flare and has cripier colors in daylight, but the test doesn't show that and I might simply be biased because I know it is multicoated.

G'morning,

Bif: Your photos look real good with that 58...I remember when you first posted them a while back and boy, was I impressed...

Sebboh: Great pano; what stitch software was used?


Looks like skies are clearing here in CT, so I am heading out with the gears for a bit..."leaf-peeping" with the 500mm

Regards,

Edd

Hi,

A few from today: 500mm f4.5 L with a T1i, 20-35mm f3.5 L and 80-200 f4 L with Pany G2.

Rolf: Really interesting landscape(s)...nice work.

Sebboh: Thanks for the info...I need to upgrade at this point as I am starting to use the 35mm T-S much more often.

Regards,

Edd
