Quick laptop edit from last weekend.
5DMkII and Contax/Yashica Zeiss 35/1.4, wideopen? Think so, hard to remember...

buggz2k,

That is really something! Love the combo of the softness with the ultra sharp details in the pedal! Well done!

GSteve - I like your blue flowers - it's a nicely composed image, and the yellow-green of the pods sets off the blue.

On second thought, ugly border.

Thanks.
I like this lens a LOT.
It stays in my "quick bag" along with my Minolta Rokkor 58/1.2
I think I like the CYZ 35/1.4 the most because of it's MFD capability.

EDITED: desaturated the reds, and used the CONVERT to profile rather than assign.
When I used assign to colorspace sRGB from ARGB, the reds shifted, a LOT!
Dunno why I've had it my head to use assign all this time...

Wow, some great images here. Here's one I took today from a trip to a local botanical garden. Still going through the rest of the images, but this one stood out to me.

Great pictures 15bit!! You have some very nice ones in this thread, and I love the way that lens takes pictures. I want to pick up the f4 version.

buggz2K - color of the rosebud is better. You do have to convert rather assign the profile. sRGB is best for the Web. Edit your image in Adobe or ProPhoto RGB, then convert a copy for posting.

Jim Sanderson - I think your two images are excellent in design and color.

Many thanks. I really like the 70-200mm with tubes. I find it to be a very versatile combination. I've been thinking about the f/4 version too, just for a bit of weight reduction, but i can't afford to have both models and i don't want to lose f/2.8 for the occasional times i use it.

Cross posted from the Canon Summer thread, some floral abstracts. Inspired by (but certainly not equal to) Ram's shots from p121 and p123. 5D / 50mm f/1.4 / Kenko tubes

it was shot with a canon 70-200 with an extension tube. the IS works like a charm if you don't have a tripod with you.
