Me, I finally got some decent weather to do more testing with the very budget friendly Canon FD 200/2.8 S.S.C. Here are some grabs all shot WO. The lens has potential . . . especially since it's a FL I don't shoot very often in a prime. Sure, it's a bit flat requiring contrast and clarity in post and has CA which clears up easily in post. Otherwise, I really can't complain at all for the $125 spent on this 'like new' condition lens. I ordered a Leicaist Canon FD to Leica M adapter which will arrive in a couple of weeks.

Nice Tim. That Pentax 28 does well in your hands.

next year, I have two trips to look forward to (Lofoten in late Feb..middle and North Iceland late Sep)
then I will surely bore you with more landscape shots
Wow - lucky guy! Those are 2 photographer's paradises (if the plural to paradise exists). Wanted to go to Lofoten since long time (from Sweden not too far...) - I should go to one of those 2 one of these years... I doesn't get more beautiful than that in Europe....
Definately looking forward to getting bored by you with your landscape shots, ha!
