Sorry, I had ventured outside the alt forum, and upon my return, I had a warm and fuzzy feeling, and thought I could get away with a little alt humour.

Helimat, you did. That's the "Heh". and the "", no?
I think it was me that didn't get through. That happens every now and then, I'm probably not good at this. Anyway, rest assured I enjoyed your joke and please accept my apologizes for not wording myself better.

regards,

I think I chose the wrong emoticon, as I was not really all that upset. No worries, Jonas!

Hi,

No problem.
I in turn wasn't in any good mood coming here from the "Why I hate AF" thread. I think I'll have a break from here.

Cheers,

some shots with my most used lens the leica 350mm f/4.8. obviously it's a super telephoto so it can blur the background into a single solid color if that's the sort of thing you're into. i'm posting some shots showing it's performance in situations that would be of more interest to birders not necessarily my most artistic.

in general i find it's back bokeh to be quite pleasing with lovely vibrant color while the front bokeh is generally atrocious:
most shots wide open @f/4.8

i have always been quite happy with it's rendering of pine needles
http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4023/4347355995_f49f947aa9_o.jpg

it does have some double line issues at with near subject branches

strong backlit examples:

this one shows the lenses biggest flaw CA

rendering of excessive cuteness and fuzziness:

stopped way down to give the feel for a very distant background, @f/16 i think:

Some Rokkor 45/2 wide-open on a 5D-II.


Totally out of focus, falling of the earth, underexposed, but I kinda like it...


I didn't buy the 45/2 for its creamy bokeh... but for it's rather funky bokeh as a counterpart to my creammachines (Sigmalux and Rokkor 58/1.2).
