Lovely Jim! Inspiring!
I am gonne try to use the Jupiter-9 (M42 version) in combination with my, just arrived, Speedbooster
I have the LTM version as well but only used in on my Ricoh, I will give it a spin on the NEX as well.
Here are some recent shots. Taken with NEX-6, with Metabones Speed Booster and Nikon Series E 50mm 1.8. I've been using MF lenses exclusively for the past few weeks, and I have to say that it makes me slow down and think more. I have a feeling I'll be sticking to MF for a while.

CronoDL, that first image is a really interesting abstract. The street images are nice too. MF on NEX is nice... you may find it hard to go back
Here are a few from an interesting area... with some really flat light. I didn't know what to do with these so I tried some new things with my PP. I'll add more to the thread over the next few days...

Jacob, I think you did really well with those. Your photos have a pleasing look to my eye, and better yet; a slightly surreal look and atmosphere about them (something I don't think is easy to achieve, to my tastes, without also making ones eyes cry for mercy, wrt PP). Particularly the last one. Nice.
Since getting the Fuji X100 I haven't used my 5n much, but recently took it to the Austrian alps. Had some time before heading to the gate at the airport, so I gave the CG28 a quick workout:

Nice pics with the CV15 nico! Here's one from the same lens on the 7. I think the combination of the color fringing on that camera plus the Adobe FF plugin "fix" leaves a residual signature, which I like but I'm not sure I want showing up in all of my pictures. I'll have to try it on the 5N or 6.
I haven't yet tried the Adobe FF plugin, but my experience with the CV15 on the M9 and Cornerfix was that while it would remove the color shift, it would also kill some of the lens's character, resulting in a flatter looking image. Perhaps this was because with Cornerfix it's difficult to separate the color shift correction from vignetting correction. Not only would it correct dark edge vignetting, but also pull back the central hotspot.
Thanks Jacob, I am glad you like the photograph . I was there before sunrise and was greeted not only photographers but also by videographers and runners. I was a little disappointed that there were no clouds that day.
Your set is very nice and my favorite of them has to be the first one, the cloud adds so much to it. Looks like you had a great time hiking.
