Jim,I know you started this thread because you wanted to see images from the N 50. So far, it's all 24-85. Come on you N 50 owners, post some shots!

OK. Here's one with the N 50/1.4

Whoa, Dr Phil's got some serious wrinkles! Guess that clears up any questions about center sharpness.

Good shot!

I've been waiting for my lenses forever......3 months now...
I'll surely post one here when I get them....

Here are some old shots posted before with CZ N 50/1.4 on 1ds3.
I really like the colors from this lens.

Here are some more:

I took these snap shots couple years ago....with N17-35 on 1DsMkII

You're killing me Wayne. I'd already talked myself out of this one. Watched a brand new unconverted one go for $460 on Ebay last night.

I want that lens Paul but the price Yikes!

Thanks Zombii!
That's what happened to me with the N 85 1.4!

I am going off now to try to take some comparison shots between
my N50 1.4, ZE 50/2 and my Rokkor 58 1.2.

Wayne, I hope you're going to post results from that test. N 85 is also on my list of wants but...

24-85N

Paul Yi - that N17-35 keeps attracting me more and more. The versatility of a wide zoom with the zeiss look.

billsnature - That landscape photos are breathaking. The mountains on the first and the sky on the last one are incredible. The kind of photos that makes one want to see them large. Congratulations.
