Very good color and contrast wide-open.

Damn dude, that looks excellent. Now I want one too!
You seem to be getting pretty damn good scans too.. home job or lab scan?

Lab scans. I'm actually not happy with the slide scans because they are such low resolution. My camera store just sold their scanner to some person in Vietnam, so I am left with getting good scans at the color negative developer and bad scans at the slide developer, I'm not sure what to do at the moment. I need to get a cool scan.

A little bokeh testing with the Canon FL 55/1.2

Some bright rings but this is a torture test. Things smooth out completely at 2.8

Cool, I went to Albany, GA for a training class and ran into that fire on the way there from Atlanta.

Flickr... I was about to get an account a while ago, but I never did for some reason. I'll have a look again.

That 40/2 seems to be even better than the Ultron, but I guess it's hard to compare film with digital. The grain adds some percieved sharpness. I'd say the Ultron often gives smoother bokeh, but it vignettes more wide open.

The bokeh isn't what I'd call anywhere near perfect.

I'll probably pick up the ultron before long. Keep in mind most lenses vignette far less on film than on digital since film doesn't discriminate based on the angle of light.
