Thanks Kokusai! Pretty stoked! Getting used to the camera. I took my CY 35-70 and the Rokkor yesterday, and ended up only using the Rokkor! I'm saving the 50 Lux R for when I have some more time! The Lux is why I bought the A7, thanks to you!! Buy the Rokkor sure is no slouch!!

The bokeh looks to be an acquired taste. Very cute low-contrast baby!
Didn't the Canon 50/0.95 start out life as a TV camera lens of the 60's?
No, mine was on a Canon 7 rangefinder owned by my father, which was passed down to me when he passed away.

Awesome images! Love the Canon .95 shots! And the venerable 50L, too...it's still a great lens!
Couple from today with the A7 + Rokkor 58 1.2

I really like the Ghia, Gregg. Yours? Looks like a 66...

Wow, these images with the Rokkor really do show how great the Bokeh rendering is! I want one!

Hi kwoodard...not my Ghia. It's sits on my route, and I drive by it everyday, and yesterday, I thought, "I need to shoot that car!"...not really sure what year, but you could be right!

The bokeh is quite nice!! I haven't shot the Rokkor enough yet to know if I like its or my Leica R 50 Lux bokeh better(and it's really, really nice)! But the Rokkor has something the Lux doesn't...1.2

Thanks Gregg! I believe the Revuenon is the same as the Cosina. My Cosina is Pentax mount that I use with an adapter. I had to make a modification though on the lens temporary removing the aperture lever to not hit the mirror on the 5D.

Gregg - I got mine from this seller many years ago in Pentax mount. It seems he's got a big inventory (new old stock) of this lens and has been selling them over the years. Not sure about the differences between other brands such as Revenon, Porst, Cosinon, Yashinon, etc., but the Cosina version has 9 aperture blades.
