Thanks for your earlier comments Helena. Looks like you had some interesting light for your trip and great to see the reinforced concrete ship again and this time with an internal shot showing the method of construction; excellent! The CV 35 1.7 seems to suit you.
Michiel, great to see some of your beautiful shots of Etretat again.
A couple more from my misty walk the other day (with A7RII and the dog), plus one from the bottom of the valley a few weeks back.
Ha! Mandarin duck, the prettiest duck species in my book. Well captured!

Derek, your images captured with that lens are just lovely; I love the first and the third. That lens' rendition is so uniquely beautiful. The rendition of the Sony FE 35mm f/1.4 G is close but I don't think it quite matches that of the C/Y 35mm f/1.4.

Agreed--Derek kills this lens. I'll end up trying one just because of him.

thanks! and i agree the lens's rendering is wonderful. sadly, those pictures are actually from my last outing with the lens prior to selling it earlier this week. the size and weight made me leave it at home and take a pocketable 35mm unless i knew i was going out to shoot portraiture.

Wow, you sold the lens . I hear you about the weight and size of the lens making a lens to be left at home, regardless how good that is....
Here are 2 images from Monument Valley; no landscape images but of a lovely, elderly Navajo lady on the horse back near her home on the valley floor.

yeah, i'd been saying i was going to sell it for nearly a year, but could never bring myself to do it. we'll see how much i regret it... maybe i'll end up getting another in the not too distant future...
here is the last shot i took with it before boxing it up:
Joshua STOP i can't take it anymore i need to go shoot this damn 24-70 in the wild but no time. Really nice images coming off that lens. Not to bad a shooter behind it either. I kid you have a great eye

Guy, I kid you not. Some of the images looked like they were taken with a medium format. The details are simply amazing but that lens, is not without any flaws. I will address the flaw a little later in a separate thread. It doesn't have anything to do with the optical performance nor AF but it may need a FW upgrade to address the issue.
