Agree with ^^ Dave above; if flickr users enable sharing, then use of the sharing widget and BBCode isn't going against their wishes... and it sure is helpful to see the image.
Sony A7R, Summilux 35 pre ASPH
A friend of mine in Japan, the one who convinced me to look at the pre-ASPH over the ASPH, sent me some samples from his a7r that convinced me it's okay to let go of the Summicron-C 40. Once he gets around to posting them, I'll post the link.
The guy shoots nothing at infinity, so I had to ask him to make an exception for me with the request that he put "something in the corners". So I get what looks like a no-effort landscape of a sloped hill and some scraggly trees. A f/1.4, if you don't correct for the vignetting, which he didn't, corner performance isn't going to matter much, so all I'm seeing are contrasty blobs. But by f/4, enough of the vignetting is gone and the corners are sharp enough that I can see, on the lower right-hand corner, in this little clearing, there's two people making out. By 5.6, I can see it's his wife and a half-inflated blow-up doll. From f/8 on I can see, in very clear detail, her trying to re-inflate the doll.
So it was a real "be careful what you wish for" kind of thing, but the performance was what I expected. What I didn't expect- stopped all the way down, I don't see any evidence of diffraction.

), even when sharing is evidently authorized. Could someone post a "mini-tutorial" on the proper way to find the BBCode in the "new" Flickr ... thanks.
