Congrats on your new lens, Vincent! Your shot really shows its classic (and classy!) rendering.
Nice one, prosep!

Brilliant portrait, Lars! One of the best I have seen here. I wonder if a slightly more discreet frame might not give it even more "soul"...

Thank you philber. I'm a bit lazy when posting here and just use one of my "standard frames"

Thanks Wayne, prosep, OneAnt. And congrats on your new lens Vincent.
Nice street shooting OneAnt. And prosep I like this flower with a less busy background/foreground much more than the other

Something a little different for here. I was invited to a friend's apartment last night, with a view of the beach. The Red Bull X Fighters were in town, so here's a view of the arena - 2/35 ZF2 on a crop sensor.

Terrific images posted here, so many great shots, very inspirational.
I thought I would get out of the garden and try a portrait with the 1.4/35mm.
Thanks for viewing.

I love the B&W's as of OneAnt & rji2goleez. As it seems the Zeiss lenses are extremely fine for B&W and I suspect, I will do a lot more B&W in the near future!

Their powerful contrasty rendering does B&W very well. Lovely shots.
The 100MP is really excellent in picking up the fine details for B&W work. Here's a petal that I shot with the lens:

Francesco, love your bluish long exposure shot with 21 a few pages away. Great tone, and looks better than BW version, in my opinion.
Hugo, amazing shots with milky waters, as always.
Bob, love the drawing man, statues in the church, and also indoors with 21 from Barcelona and Paris churches earlier. Great atmosphere in those.

Here are a couple of street shots with 2/100, D300. I believe both of them were shot close to wide open. I also missed the focus in both cases, but I found them still quite usable.

This lady started to look sideways to see who was stalking her, while I was pretending to shoot something else ahead of me. Well, what should I do - it's pretty tough to get somebody in focus while both of you are walking, so I had to follow her for quite a while and make a dozen of shots or so

That man, on the contrary, didn't pay attention to me, which nevertheless didn't help me to get him in perfect focus

Thanks for watching.

No worries

I am a Scottish-Canadian living in Germany, so I get to see common mistakes. In fact, I think that the vast majority of young Germans, and older West Germans, speak English very well, but typically say that they don't, because they make a few mistakes. By that standard, no one would speak foreign languages well

Funny, since I have heard of the 100MP being stiff, but mine is super smooth, but I don't recall hearing of the 50MP being stiff

my 100 MP is stiff and my 50 MP is loose. Funny how they differ

(catching up on the thread after a two weeks trip.. sorry)

50MP wide open. This lens does seem to carry a lot of depth of field for its focal length.

You are right, Carsten, I would never have guessed that this was a 50mm wide open. More like 28mm, by the looks of the DOF. And a great picture too!

I wasn't really expecting that. The lens is great for many things, and I am very impressed by its lack of CA where the 100 MP has lots, but I do want something which can give more 3D and isolation, so a 35/2 or 50/1.4 (or both!) is in the cards.
